Not even in the slightest bit funny.

What's the UK's prevalence then? Are we also exempt? (Ie kids).

Credit cards only offer protection on companies that go bust, for example. So yeah, buying online or airline tickets I agree if its expensive. But we don't pay anything in the way of fees on our British MasterCards. Some do cash back if you're with a random online bank. Personally I prefer a...

Susie if the kids get scratch tests then doesn't it flag a false positive with the fact all kids get the bcg done there from birth?

Chip and pin? Dude now you're behind. Don't tell me they don't have touch in?? We pay by tapping our debit cards against the reader. No pin at all. There's a max amount you can pay using this method but for most day to day things it suffices. Even works on buses and tubes now. Oysters are being...

Cash?? What's that? Always use out debit card here in the uk. Takes the cash straight out our accounts. Never carry cash on us at all.

Only to build credit history. Otherwise I hate the bloody things. Have them strictly for emergencies.

Straight from the farm. Lmao!!!!

Yup, exactly what I thought. We never use ours for anything.

My husband is dyslexic. o_O

Lol I know what you mean!! Yup I'm very perfectionistic on the computer and rarely ever make mistakes. So I usually do all the form-filling-in for hubby whenever we need forms done. ;D And he's always asking me to proof read his stuff too. :D

Can spouses fill in the ds260 or does each spouse have to fill their own in? I was just going to go ahead and fill in hubby's since I'm faster on the computer. But should I rather let him do it? Does it even matter?

Are credit cards allowed for proving funds though? I thought they weren't because that means you're technically spending the bank's money. We have two credit cards with zero balance on them and weren't planning on even bringing them into the equation. Or should we?

Not sure. Haven't looked yet. Well, I looked but there was a lonnnng price list of various shots and I thought that can't be right. Was like a full page long. Hope they don't do the skin test here in London because our toddler had his bcg vaccine at birth. Do they always do X-rays? I thought...

Yeah I also thought so. Unless I got the wrong end of the stick. But I'm fairly certain they had a bunch of shots. They had theirs back in SA. I didn't have the tb or smallpox one. Will they make me have at least the tb one? I REALLY DON'T WANT IT :'(
