I did have a sort of budget in that I thought I knew where I was and was watching what I was spending. But never accounted for this at all and it came as a bit of a surprise (even though it probably shouldn't have). Damn Borehamwood. Just now, sjc said: Do you keep a work diary?

I was never smart enough to live my work or personal life off the cuff so I always kept a professional diary that included personal shit I needed to do or know. I'd recommend it tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Connolly Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Just received an email to say my credit limit has been cut in half, and if I wanted to discuss it, I should phone them. Phoned them up to find out that the department that handles that closed at 5pm. So why the f**k are they sending out emails at 7pm? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supermik Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Sounds a bit random that. Make sure that it is legitimate before giving them any details. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It fucks me off that it has been handled this way. While it doesn't bother me on this occasion, it does concern me that it might happen again at a time where it will be an issue and I might not be quite so laid back. Regardless of the organisation, sending out emails that might require dealing with a response, and then immediately fucking off is the act of a total c**t.

Ross. Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Missus and I have been looking to buy a house for the last year or so. Market over here is nothing like as fast as in the UK and you definitely have to be a lot more patient. Viewed a place about 5 months back that I liked, but the missus wouldn't consider because it fell outside the area she wants to buy in. When I say "Fell outside", it was literally a 100m walk to the parts she is on about. Anyway, long story short, the house sold not long after. She is finally starting to open her eyes to the market here and how far our budget will get us. The end result is that the other night she said to me"We should have bought that place you liked". I've been a seething mess since. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely them contacting you during office hours to say they are changing the limit with immediate effect would have been simpler?

It's probably one department dealing with the communication to customers and another dealing with the actions to be taken. I agree with you that they should give notice of such a change though - If you're bothered you can check the T&Cs of your card and it will state the terms of any changes, I'd imagine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
