    have you tried applying for a maestro in branch?

    Hi, yeah once about 2 months after they opened the account - they said they couldn't agree as there was no income mandated to the account - had to send them 3 months wage slips but there was no address to send it to and the branch staff wern't really helpful so gave up lol

    Breezy ;)

    Alreet Clio, whats the question?
    Since when has the world of computer software design been about what people want? This is a simple question of evolution. The day is quickly coming when every knee will bow down to a silicon fist, and you will all beg your binary gods for mercy.

    I made a purchase 2 weeks ago from a Bed shop called Bensons,
    well i was told i had to leave a deposit and pay the balance by no later than today. well i left a deposit and used my Egg Money card went in to the store dinner time and paid £314.99 on my Argos mastercard so i could get the 3 months 0%, so i could get the next delivery slot which was thursday between 4 and 8pm. well they told me afterwards via telephone call that bed was being delayed by 6 weeks so i cancelled order straight away as i'm not waiting that long. they have refunded me the full amount to my Argos card is it ok for them to do the full amount onto card even though some of the ammount [£100] was my Egg Money card. they said it's allowed and not a problem.

    "example"
    Bed 415 - 100 deposit on Egg card 2 week ago. Today 315 on argos card.
    later on today refund on argos card 415.

    I think its fine for them to do that. For example, I have bought things from Tesco on my debit card and had them refunded onto my credit card.
