Evening everyone. Just wondered if any of the Elite can give me some advice regarding Manchester airport. We need to pick dd up from terminal 3 and not sure where to park.
Thanks xx

If my memory is correct... tell your DD to go up to DEPARTURES and u go up to DEPARTURES in your car and wait for her there at the DROP OFF area... but you will need to stay in the car so tell DD to walk out and wait for u.

this will save u having to park and pay the rip off charges..

Hi
Just been reading your views on Android Pay. I think it’s linked to the device even with factory reset I couldn’t add a new account. I have managed to get one using a new gmail, same card on my Samsung tablet - you can’t use this to pay with but I set up the new account with the tap and pay showing then signed in on my A3 which the previous account had been on. I hope this makes sense. I suppose a cheap android with at least 4.4( to download android pay) would work to set up an account even with no nfc as once the account is set up then sign in on a phone with nfc.

Thanks for this.

So do you see the envelopes offer on the non-nfc device and then find that it then works on the previously used nfc phone? Do you have to remove or reinstall anything from the previously used nfc phone or simply add the second google account?

Edit: I see pizza express £5 mains O2 is back, can these be combined with the droid vouchers? In the past you could certainly use the o2 mains then pay with a pizza express gift card as they simply gave a smaller bill rather than counting as an offer.

thanks for all the help with our FURBY CONNECT
they do much more than the old ones used to, hence the battery use
rechargeables are generally lower voltage in this country, and we need 1.5v. Have had a scout round but not really found any in this country (only 1200 mAh and we ideally need 2500mAh)
the rate we are using batteries it will be cheaper to go to USA and get the 1.5v we need. xx

We had this with a meccano meccanoid, tried using rechargeables plus convertor (aa to c cell) but 4.8v was not enough. WE were able to buy a large rechargeable 6v 'camping battery' charged by a car charger as the robot has space to mount it and wire that into the battery connections but I suspect the aesthetics of the furby would not be improved with this approach....

I've today added 3 more VISA accounts today using different phones/tablets and now have them on my regular phone which the 2 original VISA and HSBC accounts are/were on. Perfect timing as my 2nd VISA expired this eve and my HSBC expires in a week.

Yes you see them on the non-NFC you set them up on and then on the NFC phone which I did not touch.

Looks like I'm going to well exceed the target I had set myself

Interesting - a few have reported getting it again on the same device so it is working out what they are doing differently. I am trying to keep track of the different variations of email address I have used while testing :eek:. I may just revert to the old add a number st the end and work up from there .

Did you use all the same details apart from the email address or change anything? Same card?

Many thanks
