I watch you when it's very, very dark.

And if I told you my job title, sadly, I'd have to kill you.

[edit: actually now I come to think of it, I could tell you my job title in safety, because it would make f*** all sense to you... even if you worked in the same company as me!]

It could end well in some cases. What you lot have not gathered yet is that some of us only have limited mod powers. I have no power in the USA or Canada for example. I am Europe.

What I do have is a very large and vast Mod network so when one is not online another one is and we do have ESP powers. What I cannot do ... somebody else can

Think on

Was a Principle Funeral Director and Qualified Embalmer in the UK, but since I'm on the dreaded H4, I have become chief cook, cleaner, maid, anything else that comes with being a stay at home housewife/mum. Still a member of the British Institute of Embalmers and intend to stay that way..... never know what's around the corner

Software Tester - NatWest should have hired me. So should HSBC, their online app is crap ( technical term )

Some very entertaining, yet worrying responses in this thread.

I'm a SE student and agree, the apps are crap and ridiculously basic, but the positive aspect is that you don't need the pin device to check your balance with HSBC.

Yeh, I can check my balance fine - can I actually do anything with it ?
No, currently waiting for a reply from customer complaints

I use First Direct these days. Much better app (still lacking slightly), customer service and no pin device. Not great if you have international accounts though and want to use Global View.

You could carry this on in an unofficial capacity. Do you have a basement with a pit in it?
