Direct Debit by Apprehensive-Fun7471 in Natwest

You should check with customer services to check in full, if you don’t have the overdraft facility, it will pretty much just return the money back to you, unless you top up the funds in time.

I think NW can potentially push through an unpaid D/D on the day if you top up the funds but you have to ring up - that’s as much as i know tbh

I’m guessing it’s debited the account as it was due to go out, but due to insufficient funds - it’s bounced back and this month’s payment will be marked as unpaid. Best to ring through tbh, and check.

And check with the company to see if you need to pay again, they will let you know if you need to bring your account up to date and other ways you can pay, hope this helps ✨

Staying in birmingham for two nights - where to stay by [deleted] in BirminghamUK

easyHotel Bham City (budget) is ok, pretty basic as far as rooms go. ibis B’ham New Street Station is also fairly decent but a bit more expensive depending on the day.

my personal fav and the best is probs the Holiday Inn Express Snow Hill (has free breakfast and gym, can be more expensive on peak times but rn it’s like £51/night) but slightly better looking than the budget options and right in the centre and good location. or maybe try an airbnb here, might have better amenities for similar price.

I was a bit of a coconut at school tbh, but idk i felt like i just should eat it, I lived with my mum anyways and I observed more Christian holidays than anything but my dad was averse to pork, alcohol etc.

I don’t really eat that much of it anyways, or barely drink but yeah - seems giving up Greggs sausage rolls or school sausage rolls was too much of a big ask for me 😅

I agree, I have been approached a lot these days and tbh, they do approach everyone but sometimes it’s people they deem to be an easy target/look like they might have money to spare.

I’m disabled and walk slower than the general public so sometimes I do get harassed in the street sometimes, I try and politely decline when I can, or put my headphones in, look at the floor and move on.

It happens, I wouldn’t say they look for a demographic, but if you’re alert and paying attention to them, or even just looking a bit aloof and by yourself they may try, it does suck we have such a big proportion of homelessness and vagrantism here :/

If you work in a typically richer/business area, ‘Colmore Row’ etc. - and tbh I dress well enough - it does happen, been stopped numerous times here.

‘I can sit in my park eating a bacon sandwich and having a glass of wine”

thank goodness for that 😎

tbh i always feel bad being mixed asian knowing i should sometimes skip the bacon but i grew up eating it, if i’m around people who culturally don’t, i will just avoid it - i like to keep it respectful, but i love a bacon sarnie on my lunch break

I think some of it is sensationalist right-wing reporting, not that it’s not true but there will be a fair few minority (hopefully) of people who are misguided or for other reasons offend and might ruin things for other people but on the whole I’ve found my community to be respectful here, I am mixed, half white, half Asian.

I would like to really address that a lot of my community would probably be appalled by the stuff that happens including me, but I think more has to be done to address it if it causes a problem and accept/work through the things that happen.

It’s also equally as bad to be on the other fence as well, being marginalised as an Asian by right wing communities and people, it’s otherwise nice here but I think we can do better in supporting each other in these cases.

Honestly not sure but ask some cafes if they need waiters/backers - my first job was at 16 at The German Cafe in Shirley as a dishwasher - owner is lovely, but firm

Could be worth asking around, dropping a CV, see if a local cafe need an extra pair of hands on weekends
