    I bought a good few .69c songs on itunes.. Think I've made the 10 transactions but was hoping for a text or some kind of confirmation that I did..

    I tried making a 50c donation to a charity but it failed.
    Might this be a sign the card is out of money?

    I thought I had my 10 done but after lodging a cheque and using the card again I got a text to say I had hit the 10 and to expect it in January

    Was this recently?
    Would I be too late if I made 2 transactions today? :-(

    I'm gonna have to do a bank transfer because I'm out of money on the card and there's no lodgement machine near :-(

    Did 11 transactions by the 30th and yet I didn't get any sort of text confirming my eligibility. Most of them were 1c transactions though. Edit: called up KBC today and they confirmed I'd still get the money deposited into my account :)

    Yup they said by January 31st. Why expect it earlier? It's better in their pocket than ours until they have to pay it out (From their perspective).

    Given up hope? They said they'll credit us by January 31. I wasn't expecting it this early at all!

    What would happen if I transferred it before the 5 euro Govt charge has been taken from it?
    Like is that ok to have it empty, or will it go into an overdraft? :confused:
