miaoww I do the two bank account thingie (with the same bank). On payday I transfer everything but the money to cover my bills over to my 'spending' account. This is then all I have for the month. I keep up-to-date using online banking and for me it does work

Good luck whatever you decide :A

sounds good will contact my bank as see if i can do that thanks for advise -slight problem in that unless I get a good bonus theres prob nothing to transfere anyway! Got to sort this out!! i checked some bank statements and weve recieved approx 2,000 in charges within 11mths! arghh - that could of cleared some debt!

Just highlight the text and click the button.

Or if you want to type the code in:

[noparse][strike]Your text to strike through[/strike][/noparse] = [strike]Your text to strike through[/strike]

Ah how stupid of me , its because I nearly always use the quick reply.

Cheers

Well i am with think banking and yes they charged £12.50 per month but when i get paid ( weekly ) they take out so much money and put it into a salaries account ( for the bills ) and the rest is put onto my card for me to use. I get paid every friday and i have a text at 8am every friday to let me know how much i was paid, how much they are keeping aside ( pre arranged amount ) and how much will be on my card to use. Also if a DD is not paid they do not charge you anything you are not charged the £30 - £35 as with other banks, so no vicious circle.

YOu know what ~ I do this ~ MYSELF ~ EVERY pay day and I dont even have a degree or anyfink :rolleyes:

Alternatively I read your post as *Spam, spam, spam, spam. Spam, spam, spam, spam. *

If you want me to knock something basic up just give me shout. Would you be able to open it on your comp?

www.openoffice.org if you don't have anything to do it with.

The Calc spreasheet (like Excel) is very good. And FREE.

If you don't want to have 2 current accounts with your bank, another idea is to open a saving account (with your bank) , that has a cash card. You could then leave all your DD money in your current acount and have your spending money in a savings account. That way you would not risk going overdrawn on your new account.
