I’ve invested it in Chip for a month as they are offering a £20 bonus if you open an account and leave money in for 30 days.KajiKita said:Hello again <waves>

Free money yesterday was £5 from ipsos which turned into an Amazon voucher.Sun is shining again and already warm. Off out all day today so spent the morning making a picnic mountain for us all.Was quite pleased with myself yesterday. Annoyingly a DD was due to go out the bank which I couldn’t cancel. The company were also unhelpful saying they would still collect the payment. My bank said just move all your money out overnight. Which I did. Then remembered annoyingly a pension payment goes in on 4th. So resigned myself to losing £70. Woke up before midnight due to the cat being sick and figured I’d try my luck at midnight to see if I could swipe the pension money out before the DD got collected! It went in at 12.20 and no sign of the DD so I swiped that money out and hopefully I’ve managed to avoid it. Bank says they will try again at 2.30 today to take the DD so I’ll just leave my money in the savings account all weekend!DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)
