Hi Kim,
WOW, just seen how much you got written off!!:beer:
Hopefully I can get the same outcome. Just after some extra top up money if I can get it really as I am on my ar se at the moment:rolleyes: .
Ahh the fun of Lloydstsb again today. Went into branch. They rang the loan centre who put a note on the account so I could ring up. Got home, rang them up and lo and behold...........they cant help me:T
The loan was refinanced by the collections dept 2 and a half yrs ago and they put me on a special low interest rate, if the loan centre got involved it would jeopardise this and end up costing me more(so they said) I now have to wait for the loan to be passed to collections, possibly Friday, maybe Monday then discuss it with them. Ludicrous innit, you want to come to an arrangement to pay them and they don't want to know:mad:
Positive things done today:
Posted on another forum re tax credit issue
Put 3 items on Ebay
Updated signature with ebay and Paypal earnings.
Doing my last bit of revision for the final exam tomorrow:eek: hopefully all will go well. Will keep you all posted.
Oh another bit of good news, got a renewal notice of direct line for a car I got rid of in Feb, phoned them up as I'm sure i had cancelled it. yep i had but as i hadn't sent the insurance docs in they hadn't actioned it:doh: Good news is it was paid in full so I'm gonna get it backdated to Feb £92 quid coming my way.:D0 -
just wanted to wish you a huge good luck for your final exam tomorrow, I am sure you will breeze it!!!0

Evening ITBS
Yes the 19.6 and a bit K was entirely their fault due to their software failure, but for 5 years they tried to make be be their scapegoat. As I didn't have the b**lls, savvy or will to challenge it, I let it hang about for 5 years hoping it would go away. It didn't until I became proactive, then it did go away !
Now I'm looking for compensation !
Well done on all your positive steps and bits of luck that keep finding their way into your pocket and best of luck with the exam, although luck is only 1%, its the determination and bl**dy hard work that gets you through !
Keeps us posted

Cheers
Having a 10 min break from the revising, so much its going in one ear and out the other:rotfl:
I have just thought, how good would it be to post at least one positve thing i have done EVERY day on my diary????? What do you think. at least that way it always finishes on a good note (so I dont depress anyone:p ) and gives me a kick up the jacksie to do at least 7 positive things a week.........0 -
Good luck for tomorrow mate. I am sure that you will sail through it.£2 coin/ £460

Oh yes definitely one positive thing everyday rather than focussing on the negatives.
Its not what happens to you, its how you deal with it, remember :-)
Right, got to do a shopping list, I'm doing the catering for my friend's 40th on Friday....apparently I have a knack.....might be a potential career change for me there !
Good job I have food hygiene certificate though, don't want anyone going down with botulism, now that would be a problem lolol
Nite and good luck tomorrow
