General Discussion Area / Scratch repair pen...

« on: 02 June 2014, 11:14:39 »

Theres one or two little scratches around my car i'd like to try and sort. They're not deep so was wondering if these repair pens are any good.
There's one being advertised on TV just now from JML. Around the £8 mark I think.
Any good? If not, what do you recommend ?

Hold on .. he was paying the Luma card with, presumably, a debit card .. and the site asked for the pin of his debit card (presumably from another bank)?

Sure it wasn't asking for the three digit security code on the back (which is a perfectly legitimate thing to ask for)?

That's it exactly.
The wanted the PIN number from the card he was going to pay the LUMA balance with, which was his Santander card.
It wasnt the 3 digit security numbers on the back of the LUMA card, he thought at first that's what they meant, but the guy on the phone said I was his own personal PIN number that was required.

General Discussion Area / Credit cards...

Friend of ours has one of these capital one Luma cards.
He's  just been round at mine registering the card online so he can manage his account and make online payments.
As he was making a payment the next page in the process was headed ...Final Security Check, and there was a box asking for his ATM PIN number and below that another box asking for the expiry date of the card.
This sounded very fishy, so he rang capital one, who say this is a 100% secure site and he could type in his PIN number without anyone ever knowing it.
My mate said he wasn't happy about doing this as even his own bank wouldn't ask for his PIN number so he refused to go any further.
He was able to make a payment over the phone and did so.
Has anyone ever heard of this practice?
I always was told never reveal your PIN to anyone and certainly not give it out online.
Any thoughts would be grateful .

Whatever happened to KillerWatt?
Some of you will no doubt remember him and I've no idea why his name just popped into my head.
I remember some very "heated" debate involving this character. Cost me a fortune in popcorn 
Anyone heard what he's up to these days?

The Bucket List. The scene at the end when Jack Nicholson is talking about Morgan Freeman. Lump in the throat every time.

I had my home phone divert calls to my mobile, the cost was 10p every call I received. Mind you that was about 7 years ago.

Well, having never seen the show before I would have to say that it's about as racist as you can get... but it's funny.
When did this show air?  Guessing the 70's?
We're there many shows like this then?
