Hard to believe The Matrix is 20 years old now. Anyone see it in the cinema at the time? I didn't watch it until a few years later on DVD and enjoyed it. Haven't seen the sequels.

Yea remember me and my friend watching it when it came out on dvd. I think i watched the follow up but i cant remember.

Pffft I watched it on VHS, there was no such thing as DVD's until I owned a PlayStation 2. First DVD I watched was NWO Back in Black which a free with Smackdown - SYM. Got a few laughs out of a clip of Tony Schiavone scolding Hogan as a heel, "he was no good, he was never any good"

Any recommendations for one of those top up debit cards?
Basically want it as a middle man to move money from my bank account to a betting account.

Turns out Revolut don't like betting companies but Skrill do. At least I have a Revolut account!

CastorTroy · 04-04-2019 02:07PM

I've heard others using the revolut card on betting sites to avoid showing up in the statement. Maybe different site

sky88 · 04-04-2019 02:20PM

ive used revoult on betting sites lots although if anyone is using to avoid showing up for mortgages or anything i believe there starting to request revoult or similar statements

Started taking creatine too help me a bit on my workouts. Notice a small difference but noting much. So many vitamins and supplements out there which are not cheap

Drinking 6/8 glasses of water daily is killing me. Never much of a water drinker and never drank this much daily

Wouldn’t surprise me alright. If they see decent amounts of money going to a Revolut type account they’ll want to see what it’s being spent on. Cash is pretty much the only way it won’t be detected somewhere though even then if you’re taking out decent sums from the ATM too regularly they could ask questions on that. I have heard conflicting reports on whether the occasional, small gambling transaction would be held against you, but I would err on the side of caution there.

I've had 2 people in the same bank tell me differing things on your more "frivolous" types of payments, both agree that it'll make little difference if you're well able for the loan you're trying to get but if you're on the margins or need an exemption then it probably won't help your case

Furious-Red · 05-04-2019 09:42AM

I used to work in the sales department(loans/credit cards/overdrafts) of a bank and any betting transactions could affect your application(it might not always tho)

Like if your paying all your direct debits when they come in , showing your wages coming into the account and then still retaining a solid bit of money on a regular basis you should be fine(which is usually an computer automated decision)

Its basically if your application goes to an actual lender they will look of your account and possibly ask for more details like other accounts. If they see lots of betting transactions they more than likely decline your application

Too good of an offer too let go and I shall contact them if there still not here by the end of the week

I don't, but it's a temporary site-wide ban. I'm posting this publicly to inform but also to move on, as talking about banned users is a no-no. But as a PW regular, i'd expect to see him back in a bit.

Omackeral = the new Benoit?
