Buckster Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Ordered a new sleep mat today, I was going to get one from Kilos Gear where my chair came from but the one they do is 5cm shorter than I wanted, I was recommended to one on Amazon that goes for only £35 so I thought for that I will take a punt, in the end it had a discount on it so got it for £28. The one I really like is £250 and I will not be surprised if I end up with one of those in the long term but let’s see what this budget option is like. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MooN Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 the atmosphere at home is electric at the mo, one of the twins passed her driving licence theory test missing a 100% score by just one point whilst the other one flunked it! ( lazy cow didn't think she'd need to actually work for it and learn stuff...) so she's 30€ out of pocket cos I said I'll pay for the one they pass. she's also just twigged that I'm only supplying 1 vehicle and her sister's looking like getting there first... 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowlycatchymonkey Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Banking bastards update before I get back to trying to catch up on all the time wasted on Barclays twats. Their official version is simply that as I hadn't updated my details they closed the account. Their story varied wildly depending on who you were talking to but a common theme was they were changing the way they ran the business accounts and as they had asked me to update my details and I had not responded they moved my money out and closed it. I believe hoping they'd never hear from me again and would keep the money as the last time I'd logged onto the main website was April last year. As they suspended access I couldn't see the latest account statements, all I could see was the money had been removed from my account and payed to 'Ntc Project' and commission payments to 'Gadbrook Park' which mean nothing to me other than a scammer had taken the money. I asked how exactly they had tried to contact me and they said they had written (utter bullshit, in fact I received a statement in the post today that goes up to the 13th Jan showing a healthy balance and no problems. If I hadn't been checking another account on their app and noticed it was missing I'd still be none the wiser. Not a phone call, letter, text or message via their banking app to say there's a problem or they're closing the account. But they will give me my money in the form of a cheque in the post, it will just take weeks! I'd guess they are shutting business accounts that are not profitable enough, when I opened it the account was far more generously structured than they are now, plus it was a dormant account apart from small savings so they chopped it. The reason the account was dormant is because Barclays fuck people over and behave poorly so we moved to Handlesbanken who charge more but behave properly. One day I'll tell you the story of the Barclays business manager who took £250,000 off Mr Slowly's dad and said "you'll be getting that back over my dead body" Had to go to court to recoup that. Then they had the bare face cheek to invite me multiple times to open another account. What absolute cunts. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
