    What does that mean?

    We=who?
    abundant life=how, in what way?

    the ambiguity of the statement is making me feel me uncomfortable?

And I really didn't care to !!!!ing walk down a !!!!ing highway and across a !!!!ing runway to get back here to have you smile in my!!!! ing face. I want a !!!!ing car RIGHT !!!!ING NOW!



    Hi

    well now you would say that.

    let's make 2 points

    =point 1=

    I love swearing, i think it has a place if used interestingly.

    but sometimes people swear because they have run out of ......well creative or descriptive words. "adjectives" describing words

    take your signature, its not really funny or interesting, it just feels tired, and angry.

    I suggest you grow up, find some grown up words to fill in the blanks of you signature.

    =point 2=

    Don't tell me i don't have right to feel how i want (uncomfortable)

    I feel how i want

    I feel uncomfortable, when i read the above signature. the reason is its ambiguity.

    it's cool.

    i don't think you can help me ......... you seem too angry and frustrated. I dont feel I have the time for you.

    you go and group hug something else, but get off me ...

    anyway

    where was I

    @everyone but Sandoval

    What does this mean?

    I'm sorry I got tired reading your little outburst so I stopped after a few lines I'm afraid.

    Sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable earlier, I must remember to take more care around such delicate little flowers who feel uncomfortable at the drop of a hat...

    If you say please then you may get a more prompt response.

    Some people feel uncomfortable when people ask questions without saying please.
  • I took out insurance with these guys: CUSC, When I lost my iPhone 3GS and submitted the claim form I got nothing, apparently you have to get mugged for them to pay up, just spent close to £500 for a replacement (Ouch).

    Nothing sinister.

    If you go to the following website www.breakthroughfoundation.org which I am a volunteer of, it should make more sense!

    cheers, I had a read its very noble, what your doing.

    anyway back to phone insurance

    I am going camping in a week and really want to insure my phone.

    bubble.com seem pretty good value. I suppose you only ever find out how bad the company are when you make a claim :)

    What did you decide in the end?
  • Protectyourbubble.com is another "supercover" name. Essentailly, you are getting the same cover that's underwritten by Fortis Insurance with a £50 excess and an additional £25 excess for claims for "accidental loss" that's offered by sevaral other websites and is just as crappy.

    Supercover have failed to update their "summary of cover" to the correct format following a change to the cover provided by the FSCS. The announcement of the change was in February 2009 and came into effect from 1/1/10, so they've had enough notice to sort it out. If they can't get that right, what else is wrong?

    To be honest, I'd still be looking to your home insurer to provide the cover. The cover is better (as I've mentioned before) and it's about a tenth of the price of a specialist policy (as I've mentioned before).
    In the beginning, the universe was created. This made a lot of people very angry and was widely regarded as a bad move.

    Hi thanks for getting back to me

    Home insurance has a few disadvantages. It has a kind of blanket prejudice in favour of the nuclear family

    ==1==
    double the price if I'm living with a friend. (even if you have known her 18 years and lived with her for 6)
    the insurers just see it as "I'm a drifter living with strangers" if its not my wife or family.

    ==2==
    a lot wont insure if you RENT
    Again the insurer sees it as Dosser If I haven't claimed a sorry piece of land.

    ==3==
    The claim takes weeks. While your without a phone


    ==4==

    I dont have house insurance already

    ==5==

    when i get a few quotes for house insurance i got 20 phone calls the next day for insurers hassling me from call centres


    I just want to make sure my phone is safe, its a smart phone worth £450. And i am going camping next week

    But i don't want to pay for the insurance only to find out the cover is worthless.
