  2. Working Tax Credit

    in Chit Chat

    Posted

    A mate tells me about `working tax credit`, says it's a cash incentive from the government available to people on low incomes and I should ring them up to see if I'm entitled to anything.

    I'm doing about 38hrs a week / £230ish take home (thought I didn't have a chance!)... so after giving them a quick call to get them to send me some forms and filling them all in (was a bit of a pain!)

    I gets a letter saying they will give me £1500 per year on top of my wages! £750 paid into my bank account straight away - back pay from April, and £50ish quid a week after that!

    Bloody nice one! :D Everyone else I tell this too doesn't seem to know anything about it, so here's a heads up for you guys if you didn't know?

    Web info: here

    Number I rang: 0845 302 1415

    Give it a go! (Y)

    Had a moan to Ebay... got this back. Not quite as bad as it seemed, but still shitty!

    As we recently announced, from 3rd April PayPal may decide to hold

    payments related to specific transactions on eBay as a precautionary

    measure to help ensure that things go smoothly for both buyers and

    sellers.

    Here are the most common instances in which a payment may be held:

    - You have been on eBay less than 6 months and sell an item above £50.

    - You have a feedback score of less than 100 and sell an item above £50.

    - You have a consistent history of transactions that result in

    dissatisfied buyers.

    - You have an average Detailed Seller Rating (DSR) of less than 4.5.

    - You have received less than 20 Detailed Seller Ratings in the last 12

    months.

    - You are listing your item in a higher-risk category such as Health &

    Beauty, Video Games or Computers.

    This measure is targeted at sellers who pose the greatest risk of

    driving away buyers by not successfully completing a transaction. The

    overwhelming majority of sellers will be unaffected. If you have

    received more than 20 Detailed Seller Ratings (DSRs) in the past 12

    months and your DSR average is 4.5 or higher, your payments will not be

    held

  22. The How To Make Money Thread

    and I quote...

    You open a company called the Arse Tickler's Faggot Fan Club. You take an advert in the back page of some gay mag, advertising the latest in arse-intruding dildos, sell it a bit with, er... I dunno, "does what no other dildo can do until now", latest and greatest in sexual technology. Guaranteed results or money back, all that bollocks. These dills cost twenty-five each; a snip for all the pleasure they are going to give the recipients. They send a cheque to the company name, nothing offensive, er, Bobbie's Bits or something, for twenty-five. You put these in the bank for two weeks and let them clear. Now this is the clever bit. Then you send back the cheques for twenty-five pounds from the real company name, Arse Tickler's Faggot Fan Club, saying sorry, we couldn't get the supply from America, they have sold out. Now you see how many of the people cash those cheques; not a single soul, because who wants his bank manager to know he tickles arses when he is not paying in cheques!
