    I called my old mortgage companies to ask about my exit fees, and one of them has offered me a £70 refund. Can I count that?

    I think you should definitely count that - if you hadn't phoned you wouldn't have got it - how far back did you go?

    Well done - definitely count it!!!

    I had a ridiculous amount of surveys waiting for me this morning, so while DH spent the morning shouting down the phone at solicitors (still no confirmed moving date:mad: :mad: :mad: !), I hid upstairs and made a total of approx £12 (not exactly sure how some of the points convert, but that's about right!) which was fantastic.

    Just signed up for Metro bingo, GL everyone!

    £1 from survey and 15p clicks today but I'm having a go at 888ladies Bingo so fingers crossed (and they gave me £10 instead of the £5 stated on the list)

    Good luck with 888 JesaRose! I hated that one - it was far too pink and the woman's voice reminded me of dodgy !!!!!! (not that it's my thing, but you know what I mean! Or maybe you don't. Anyway...)

    Nowt for me on Metro. I did the survey, but it didn't submit for me either so only got the £2. Giving up for tonight, but might force myself to try the £1 sites in the morning when they're a bit quieter. Night all!

    I don't like it either and the chat is not working so I can't even watch that

    I know what you mean - dodgy voice!
