Was speaking to my mum on Friday and informed her that big ds was fetching 36 pound to her house for the ipod he had bought of ebay and she said thats ok so long as he gives me it, which he was going to do because he had the money and still has ready to pay her, anyway yesterday when I was speaking to her she informed me that she had phoned her bank and told them that her bank card had been stolen and could they send her a new one, I asked her why she had done this and she said incase big ds gets carried away on ebay and doesent pay her, we have strict instruction for ebay usage now with the kids so he would have told us what he was buying, anyway the ebay account we have is with my paypal account and my mums card number attached to it, so I informed my mum that I would probably have the police knocking on my door accusing me of stealing the card but she said oh no I told the bank I didnt want to pursue the matter, well today I got an invoice of ebay for selling things(of my mothers) for £3.33 but dont no how that is going to be paid weather they will still accept the card or what will happen. Still wondering weather to ring my mum up and tell her I am at the police station after been arrested just to wind her up.:angry-smi123 :angry-smi123

oh no wokkies, she could have easily said her card had been damaged instead and got a new one

yeah and she could have told me before what she was going to do and I would have closed the ebay account or removed her name and card of the paypal account, she has phoned me twice today but i have ignored the phone still too angry to speak to her as it was her idea in the first place to use her card with my paypal and anything anyone buys she gets paid back for

Oh no, that's awful for you. I'd be inclined to wind her up with the police station call... might sound mean but your mum wasn't very nice about this either. Hope it all works out x

Go for the wind up, I would.

(Although maybe you should ignore my advice, I've been to the pub this lunchtime)

I am just having a nice cold lager as I type if that makes sense, lol, am thinking of getting the kids to answer the phone and say I have been locked up ALL NIGHT, lol, shouldnt joke though, knowing my luck it might happen, and actually I will say yes I stole it (even though I didnt) but dont you get three meals a day in prison, no children to wind you up, sounds lovely:happy72: :party05:

I agree it would have been alot easier if she had just said it was damaged

Hmm, sounds like something my mum would do, all our arguments are around money, it has made me stubborn and independent and at times she is the last person I would ask for help, having said that she did help me out of a jam without me asking for it, but it was on her terms.

Hope things get better for you soon.

I gasped out loud when I read that. What a terrible thing to do, I'd be sooo offended. I would just tell her straight and ask tell her about the £3 odd that she needs to pay. :angry-smi123 :angry:

thats tereible hun!!!!
I couldnt believe it!! Why say it was stolen???? Sounds to me as if there is more going on here than just the use of the card.. or is it something that she might do anyway??
Hope you get it sorted and whatever happens DO NOT put her new card details on your account!! LOL
