I've been seeing the fake Samsung pays Apple $1m in pennies story recently on my FB recently. It's fucking years old that lie.

I remember when I was 14 and thought going to Dreamhack was cool...

I remember when I got to go to Sweden for free too.

They only say "free withdrawals" because a minority do charge. Like I say though, only in pubs normally or newsagents.

Always go to a bank or supermarket if I need cash.

The ones that do charge are from services like Moneybox. Banks can't charge for debit withdrawal.

The ones that make me laugh are the ones that say "Free Cash"

Get a better bank. Pretty sure you could just go into a Bureau de Change in Belgium and get money off your card with the normal exchange rate (probably better than Travelex)

A bit late, but this nigga has it down to a T. Travelex (who some of you may recognise as that Bureau de Change from Airports) has, by and large, the worst exchange rate of any company out there. They exist purely as a method for the unwashed masses to lose money to.

If you're looking to get value for money: bank with no withdrawal fees (I use Metro Bank for all foreign purchasing) => Pre-paid currency card => Price comparison on the best rate available (typically a good company like Forex who specialise) => Throwing your money at a wall and seeing what bounces back into your hand => Travelex.

The irony of saying that on a forum dedicated to a football game.

I fail to see it.

It is a forum in dedication to a formerly great football management simulation. Where does that infer 'Hero' status on anything?

That is why this forum is dying. Something is questioned and then that.

It is. The attitude towards people is the main factor.

It's the same stuff you used to get as well and it has been going on for a prolonged period towards most

Nah, VP got it when he was being a bellend and you get it when you're being a bellend.

I don't really get on anyone elses back as they aren't deliberately trying to wind people up. That's my job.

I asked a question and then you became the bellend...

VP had a legit reason at the start to flip.

Ahh i love my work, trying to get me to move all my hours xmas week because they don't want to remove all the xmas stuff from the store. Flat out said no to it and they still keep asking, even trying to get me to work Christmas Eve which is a bank holiday for staff who work nights but my team leader doesn't seem to get that into his head.

The joys of working in retail. I've got a friend who works at McDonalds (not strictly retail but yeah), he's a shift leader or whatever, works 24 hour shifts. If you complain, you're sacked.
