    Basically, my bank account is with Barclays and my account number is 8 digits long. The first two digits are 00. However, after typing in my bank account number on direct gov for my student finance, when I click submit it automatically misses off the two 0s and just puts 6 numbers. I've tried amending it twice but it just keeps doing the same! So, my question is (and it may sound stupid), are the two 0s at the beginning actually part of my bank account number? Thanks guys

    Just need some pointers on this topic if anybody could share... I've been working with this girl at my job at Showsec and wanted to ask her on a date. But i talked to another one of the lads i know there and told him that i only get like 10- 20 mins with her every shift and wanted to have a day to get to know her... he said build a foundation with her and become good friends before asking her out on a date... Another thing is that how do i eliminate the fact she might be dating some one already without directly saying do you have a boyfriend?

    Sometime before Christmas I registered on the Volvo website especially for their section on 'Volvo saved my life', and I told my story of how I survived an accident simply because we were in a Volvo. It is an American site but was linked to directly from the official UK site. Today I received an e-mail to my personal e-mail address I used to sign up which reads as follows Spam or Scam? Why would they want/need my telephone number (which I did omit from the sign up page as it was optional)? I just don't understand how they could scam you from a phone number when they already have my name and address. Done a bit of googling and can find nothing untoward and neither…

    Hello All! This is my first post, so please be nice! After I (And many more I know) recieved the simply crushing letter telling me that my assesement centre date was cancelled on the 27th February due to the governments 'CSR's' and that Cleveland Police couldn't afford to run the A/C until the spending was reviewed later in the year/next year, I understandably was GUTTED. I was basically just wondering if anyone had had any luck in any other forces/heard anything about a possible date for this A/C or what others in my situation were doing in the meanitime? Thankyou All, Turner

    Ladies and Gents, I am prevented from using this site on my iPad as each time I click into a comment or reply box, it closes Safari and goes to the home screen.. Any ideas what the problem is? I have the most up to date version of software installed. Cheers CSI Guy (on my iPhone!!)

    Hey guys, Somethings popped up at work. Today, I took a picture on my mobile of the duty rota for where I work. This rota is open for everyone to view so nothing is hidden. However, i've been told my managers pulling me in tomorrow trying to punish my doing so, saying it's in breach of the Data Protection Act! This, I'm sure is a load of nonsense as theres no personal details on the rota except a name and a number of x's in the dates. So, can I happily tell my manager she's having a laugh? Thanks

    I've always had an interest in policing and everything surrounding it, and I've always said to myself that I do not want to be sitting on my behind from 9-5 every day of the week taking customer service calls. I have no commitments and literally have the world at my feet. This has made me think of my career options, and the main option that I have available to me is joining the Royal military police. I've been specialing for a few months now, and apparently the BA love it when applicants have a history of voluntary activities, and this couldn't be more relevant. I am unsure as to whether it would be more realistic to attempt to join the RMP as an officer or a pvt (bec…

    Hey all, right any help with this would be amazing... it is really bugging me now. Every day when I walk to the bus stop or uni or work... basically it is on my route to everywhere when walking. ...there is always a 4X4 (and now there are three) with a window sticker that looks like some sort of flag, and everytime I see these stickers it annoys me because I cant seem to find out what it is. Its yellow and blue triangles with the st george flag. Looks like this... my lovely artists impression by me! I will give you a massive e-hug if you tell me what it is!!!!!!!!!!!
