Hi Ang, I totally agree, and I wasn't criticising anyone who uses Think Banking! I had a few issues with them, and my main argument was I only have 2 direct debits, so there wasn't much for them to do for their £12.50!

As you say, what works for some people doesn't work for others.

Thanks Skip didnt think for a minute you were criticising, and do understand how some feel about the charge, as you say with only 2 debits I dont think it would be worth it either. I got so fed up before the iva with having to keep checking the bank online, to make sure there was enough money, that this takes it away from me and a bit easier for us as hubby is paid monthly and they keep all the bills from his wage and my wage is weekly so that is what we live on. i know that when he has got paid the bills are and then no worrys.
I hope all is going well for you now and you have a bit more peace in your life you deserve it.

Thanks Ang, I was worried I'd upset you! Yes, life seems to have settled down a bit now and I'm used to life as a 'bankrupt'! Dave is taking me away for a couple of weeks at the beginning of July so it'll be nice to get away for a bit - I hope the weather improves!

Oh skip you would never upset me, we all have points of view and thats what makes the forum so good, everyone sees all sides of things, I am sure I get it wrong sometimes but there is always someone to correct me, but the main thing is we do our best.

So glad to hear your going to get away, I think it is a most deserved holiday for you and one you dont have to worry about the letters when you get back. I always hated coming home because of that. Enjoy yourself relax and forget everything, you are so lucky to have Dave. My hubby is also so supportive, and doesnt care what we have, as long as its each other.
Any way thats all the praise the blokes are going to get. They might expect it too often.[;)]
