      |  Re: MrsMOBEUS Laptop Donations Ok guys, just thought I'ld let you all know we're up to... £264.93. I'm going to have to ring my bank as there was bank charge of £28 for which I haven't got a clue! Ask Dex or 'Flux and they'll agree with me as to what British banks can be like, especially with their 'unfair' charges  Anyway, I'll cover that one way or another which would then make our total - £292.93. I'll keep you all posted as to when this happens! and finally I would like to say a BIG thanks from Jade and myself for getting us to this ammount so far!

| Re: MrsMOBEUS Laptop Donations Well that figure is way off from what I was expecting. By close to $100 USD. Can you send me a list of the donations you actually received by name and amount? It could be the currency conversion site I'm using. XE.com - Universal Currency Converter

 | Re: MrsMOBEUS Laptop Donations Why will the bank charge you for transferring a lump sum from PayPal to a UK bank account? I do that all the time from eBay purchases and never have any excess charges like that...

No No it was a charge unrelated to paypal etc! The bank account was basically -£0.62p in credit for some reason, I had just transfered some money from another account to cover it. because the money I transfered didn't 'clear' by the due date they charged me £28.00. I've tried to appeal the decision over the phone to them but they don't want to budge!! oh well  damned bank!

| Re: MrsMOBEUS Laptop Donations Okay people, it's bad enough that Paul and Jade are poor (but rich in Luv and Goodness). But now their bank is stealing from them for it. I'll donate $5 for every new donation to come in. Let's go people. It's time to put the SmackDown on the Man :-)

| Re: MrsMOBEUS Laptop Donations Thats awesome of you Slay. I think the government is trying to lay some pwnage down on the banks at the moment, I think they're trying to make it illegal for banks to make stupid charges. For instance. I go 1p over my overdraft, they send me a letter saying "Dear Sucker, we are now charging you £35 ($70!) to cover the costs of writing this letter to inform you that we are taking £35 of your money. Its bullcrap.

| Re: MrsMOBEUS Laptop Donations
Yeah, one of my housemates only just got a letter through telling her she's been 38p over her overdraft limit for the past seven months. They claim she owes them £700 in charges. The banks suck.

| Re: MrsMOBEUS Laptop Donations I think im right in saying that you are now able to claim that back, up to six years back worth of over charging under new laws
