Daily Chat-TODAY! April 9th

Morning all!
Just going to get ready for work...
Lovely (but cold) day today.

Just checked my online banking and my Child Tax Credits have decreased by £150!??!!

!!!!!!?


So, I'm going to have to seriously sell everything not nailed down on ebay to make up the shart fall-not to mention the £50 in charges I've incurred because of pay-fiasco with work.



Not a happy bunny today.

    Morning bunny and all that follow...
    I am getting ready for work too I am not sure about the weather as I haven't even looked out of the window yet!
    My tax credit's are due on friday I dread to think what they will be!!! I am NOT looking forward to the mess they make of my soa! Oh well my eldest's dad owe's me 2 months money £200 so I hope that helps!
    I think that your work should pay your bank charges... my boss did when they paid us late and I got £200+ of bank charges because all my D/D got backed after all if they had paid on time I/you wouldn't have incured any charges! Mind you with what you have said re work I doubt that will happen....
    Anyway I had best get dressed... good luck with the job hunting Bunny anyone would be luckly to have you!

    I'm putting off going to work - not that it's bad, just that there's other things I needed to do at home first! Lodging court papers against a bank this week and been here for an hour just doing a last minute check on them, a few more bits and pieces ironed, so now just about ready to head off into the big bad world and earn some cash!
    Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!

    Morning all

    Bunny that sucks, is that £150 less weekly or four weekly? Seems a heck of a lot.
