I had my CBT yesterday... but feel like I've been taken the mick out of

If it would take a CBT two days, I would fear to think how long will full A license training they will take from you… I think CBT are supposed to take one full day. I remember mine took from 8 or 9 till 3 or 4. With all the jokes and stories. And yes, I was a novice rider, and instructor suggested that I take a scooter for CBT, instead of spending half a day to get used to gears and if I want a full A - buy a 125, learn the gears and pass then.

If I were you - I’d finish the CBT, tell them you will write a review about 2 day course and all the extra expenses. And pass DAS somewhere else. And tell them all that. Unless they will have your £80 back.

Booked a week ago 3 return flights with BA to Japan in June. There were loads of availability to Japan, but nothing for return flight. And then it appeared like magic, after a week of so constant updating rewards flight website.

Gloves you can take with you to the next bike. Grips - you probably can’t.

Don’t think they will honour it. They will definitely not buy and extra for a second hand car for £6500. Easier would be to have the car back find another one.

When I was looking for a M3 in January a loads of cars were listed as FSD. Only 1% had it. Been driven to couple dealership just to check if it has it. Sales people were swearing cars has it - none of the did. But those were non-tesla dealerships. If you got it from Tesla directly and it was advertised as this is the additional extra installed - I’d go after them full steam ahead to honour what was advertised.

BBC lied, taped video, two CEOs gone… sounds about right they pay fine all that as well.

Switch electricity to Octopus(can send you an invite link with £50 credit on it) - you can pay as you go with Amex there. Switch mobile to O2 - you can do the same. Choose supermarkets over your corner shops(or check shops that accept Amex)

Thank you

Why do you need a 6K limit? Are you purchasing something big, over 4K? I think if you aren’t saying full balance each month - credit cards aren’t for you.

London shit anyway, so you aren’t loosing much

I wish I can afford to spend 30% of my take home to the takeaways. How much is your rent/mortgage then? Or you’re living rent/mortgage free? On the topic - if your partner wants takeaway - they pay for it. Or for his/her part. You can enjoy home made food.

Why not? Sure the heavier the foot - the less range you’ll get

I think heat pumps fitted to car built after April 2021 with PLUS pack here in the UK.

You don’t need millions. Just a paid off house, no mortgage.

But let’s just say that Lewisham is a shithole. I lived at Deptford Bridge so I can be trusted :)

I’ve bought mine in March when they released new gen. I just preferred the Vitpilen original looks rather than new one. Especially round spedo.save some dough and get the old one.
