Lady Ferguson Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Still having problems with SagePay setting up my acceptance of Bank of Ireland Maestro. The whole process has been painful and I would not recommend this company to anyone needing to accept credit card payments. Over two months to process the application and now they can't even agree with the Merchant Bank that they recommended whether or not their systems can process Maestro. > > I've explained to the rep that the only reason I went with Sagepay (instead of Paypal) is because they accept this credit card > > Very unhappy > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

and2go Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Employers........ The distinct one way communication with the ones ive had the <insert as appropriate> to attempt to get a job with. "send us your CV blah blah.........." Still waiting for any signs of life at the other end. careers advice sites -> They are all trying to help you get a job but none seem to be able to agree on a half decent procedure on producing a CV/covering letter. in short the contradict each other. DVLA!!!!!!! lets just say im now questioning the legal status of a vehicle. got the tax class changed of my toy on the farm to an agri machine so it can go on the road.... its a tractor. got tax disc that day for it. V5C arrived on Mon for it. fair enough.... a second V5c arrived for it yesterday with the tax class changed to historic vehicle.. So now I have a tax disc that doesn't match the most recent V5C. the next question is can "historic"s run on red for agricultural work (legally)?

Lord Ferguson Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 Well what a week I've had.... first poor old Alfrid had to be put to sleep.... now today... The sun is shining in Cambridge today... so I thought I'd get the BMW out for a run.. taking it out of the garage I hear a scrape .. result... gravel rashed the wing, bumper and wheel down the garage wall pillar :'( ... I get to work an Lumpy is sitting in the tractor pulling faces... turns out the shuttle won't go (electrical fault... POSSIBLY traced now to the bottom of clutch switch) ... I think I'll be glad to see the back of this week now :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 Oh dear Mark not a very nice week at all.

I hope the rule of threes applies here then... Mind you.. they say you make your own luck in life...

CJ Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 Sorry to hear about the dog Mark, i don't know what i would do without mine now. Would your lad not be interested in cubeing cardboard and plastic ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 Sorry to hear about the dog Mark, i don't know what i would do without mine now. Would your lad not be interested in cubeing cardboard and plastic ? Thanks Chris.... He'd be interested in doing anything I think mate... although I don't think working with his dad would be very good really - I'm keen for him to get some 'life experience' before he starts his further education. He's hoping to go on to Uni and then to study to be in the medical profession. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 You are indeed correct Mark, a bit of independence will help him no end, but a bit of family labour always comes in useful, he sounds like a smart young fella one day a brain surgeon maybe?

Lord Ferguson Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I'm hoping he'll look after his miserable old dad in the twilight years of his life Chris :D .. he says he'll happily push my wheelchair off the top of beachy head mind you :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howard_S Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 With the good, there is always the bad! Sorry to hear about the tough week, I am sure the added work load I give you isn't helping either Least you can say good riddens after Wednesday ;-) I can imagine working as a family things can get heated, he might get better money elsewhere anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_scrivener Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 As an outsider to these threads, I've noticed: 'What really annoyed you today? thread: 932 pages. 'What did you see today that made you laugh?' thread: 253 pages. 'What really pleased you?' thread: 515 pages. Overall, not happy bunnies are you lot? C'mon guys, chill out, think happy thoughts. or as Donald Sutherland kept saying in 'Kelly's Heroes', "More positive vibes man!" (A great film character, even though it was totally unrealistic for WW2.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
