Was working for lastminute.com until 2am last night as what should have been a simple database change turned into a nighmare which resulted in having to restore the slave database. It took ages as the database is huge. Oh well I did manage to get about 4 hours sleep which is better than none which I thought was going to be the case at one point.
I noticed yesterday that Betfair are now allowing you to deposit via BT Click and buy. I have tested this as currently the service is free. The reason it is of interest to me is that BT click and buy do not charge for using a credit card. If it works out then I be able to turn some credit into cash for awhile which is always good from an interest point of view. With Egg charging for deposits to bookies and sporting odds ending their cash back trial I don’t have any clever money spinning schemes going. I have to wait and see whether there is a catch. For the time being have deposited a £100 from a cash with cash back. I give it a week or so to see if there is any comeback and if not I deposit a larger amount and withdraw some cash.
