Default WELL, what a fooking day I've had.....

first i get my review in work as i been there 6mths, to say, congrats all good,

then get told i have a bonus... £20 gift voucher, before i said anything he said, it's fooking crap i just agreed.

then he says next week i will have a letter about a pay increase

so all good.


THEN

on train on my way home, Barclays Fraud team ring my mobile.

BFT... is that mr payne
me : yes
BFT: have you made several transactions today?
me: NO
BFT, so you've not spent well over a thousand pound on various things?
me NOPE
BFT: ok well they have left your account
me:

then get a text off the mrs saying she has been elbow'd in the stomach,
which is bad, but worse when she carrying something

then get home to find Natwest want to charge me for a ccount i not setup

so now have no money and i'm skint


so what a great fooking day

Hard luck to much of this crap happening at the moment..
How do you think it happened? are you carefull with your bank statements / when you enter your pin etc always block the keypad with ya wallet!
Its not right you can buy stuff with such little information, you dont even need chip and pin on internet sites just the fucking card number its stupid!

seems to be alot of people with bad luck today...

not in the same league, but, my mate firstly banged his head, then he ripped his jeans, then he gets a phone call from his dad saying that the bank are charging him £200 a month for a bank account that he thought was closed. but apparently it wasnt... it was about £500 overdrawn...

hopefully nothings bad with your missus mate! it all comes in 3's... so its looking on the up!

Crap luck that, when it rains it pours. Hope the Mrs is okay.

You could always say to the Mrs that you've decided to stay in to look after her as a special treat
