Serious question I can't find an answer for but need urgently:
If I have, say, a £100 limit on my credit card and a balance on it of zero, and I pay in £500, can I then spend £500 (or £600) on the card, or would I still be limited to £100?

haha, povvo student shitty crap credit card

(I helped save b3ta! Gilgamesh gazed in wonder as Frampton came alive, Sun 14 Jun 2009, 22:00, archived)
Pretty much. I need €500 on my credit card to pay a deposit to hire a car in Brussels tomorrow night.
It has to be a credit card, they won't take debit card or cash, and the card has to be in my name too.
(I helped save b3ta! Malchick, Sun 14 Jun 2009, 22:02, archived)
sorry, lost interest now

(I helped save b3ta! Gilgamesh gazed in wonder as Frampton came alive, Sun 14 Jun 2009, 22:05, archived)
It usually takes 3 days for the cash to transfer across from my bank to my credit card
but they are with different banks.

ok whilst asking stupid questions
if I have to replace a power supply on a dell poweredge 840, does it need to be a specific voltage or type? or can I just bang in a 750watt decent one?
(El Guiri the only b3tan who is not fat, Sun 14 Jun 2009, 22:01, archived)
Yeah just bang in the 750watt decent one.
I don't know if it will work but I'm just desperate to post things tonight so I'm posting advice about things I know nothing about.
(I helped save b3ta! mike woz ere 7442200 & 7696970 getter, Sun 14 Jun 2009, 22:04, archived)
i´ll let you know how it turns out

I've put too much milk in my tea.
I don't like it when I put too much milk in because it feels a bit like I've wasted my time. I don't expect any sympathy as this is something I will just have to deal with myself. Totally posting things tonight.
(I helped save b3ta! mike woz ere 7442200 & 7696970 getter, Sun 14 Jun 2009, 22:06, archived)
milky tea is good
relax... calm down.. and sip slowly

if you put a 750W in a Poweredge you'll be picking up pieces of exploded computer off the floor for the next week

(I helped save b3ta! Gilgamesh gazed in wonder as Frampton came alive, Sun 14 Jun 2009, 22:07, archived)
Yeah you should definitely do this and film it.
It'd be like a snuff video only a real one like that 3 guys 1 hammer video. Have you seen that? Wow it really is bad. It's quite brutal and made me a bit uncomfortable. I wouldn't recommend watching it but I'd definitely encourage everyone to post things tonight, this is so much fun.
(I helped save b3ta! mike woz ere 7442200 & 7696970 getter, Sun 14 Jun 2009, 22:09, archived)
I haven't heard of that one, it doesn't sound like the sort of thing I'd expect to see on YBF though

(I helped save b3ta! Gilgamesh gazed in wonder as Frampton came alive, Sun 14 Jun 2009, 22:10, archived)
It's no YBF material that's for shizzle.
haha that sounded a bit like Snoop Dogg then didn't it. I always find it odd he has two g's at the end of his name. I wonder if there's a reason for that. He's got a brother called Nate too. Oh this is off the hizzle, I'm having so much fizzle tonight fo' rizzle.

i just searched it on you tube
I can only find "reactions", but not the actual 3 guys one hammer

You need a specific Dell one
Dell are cunts and the power connector that goes from the PSU to the PCB motherboard is a non standard connector pinout, or at least it is on my PE540.
(I helped save b3ta! turb0t, Sun 14 Jun 2009, 22:06, archived)
ok thats no problem
there is a dell reseller literally opposite
(El Guiri the only b3tan who is not fat, Sun 14 Jun 2009, 22:12, archived)
Why bother doing that?
You get an interest free period to pay off that card, just put money in it when you need to.

What is the point of a credit card with a £100 limit?
You might as well have one of those Electron cards they give to bankrupts and children.

I sometimes like to go up to primary school children and recite the alphabet backwards and then go to the park with them and stuff.
Probably shouldn't have said that but I'm totally in the mood for posting tonight so anything goes.

I never had a credit card,
but I thought you could only pay off your debt, not pay money into it like a bank account.
(I helped save b3ta! Moon Girl Technologies horrendous beanbag, Sun 14 Jun 2009, 22:02, archived)
check you can put in that much as an overpayment
i don't see why you shouldn't be able to, but those bankingtons have wiley ways y'know

its a crap credit card if you only have a limit of £100

(I helped save b3ta! turb0t, Sun 14 Jun 2009, 22:04, archived)
Yeah I agree with this.
Well crap. You should get a better credit card and then come back here and tell us about it and post more exciting things. Posting is fun. This is fun.
(I helped save b3ta! mike woz ere 7442200 & 7696970 getter, Sun 14 Jun 2009, 22:11, archived)
I thought the concept of a credit card was that you didn't have a positive amount
it's not a bank account; you don't pay 500 in and then take it all out later, that's a debit account. If it's a credit card, your balance is between 0 and -100.

Or have I, in my heady world of international finance, completely misunderstood the word "credit" in this situation?
(I helped save b3ta! Grrrmachine the indifference engine, Sun 14 Jun 2009, 22:13, archived)
I always thought it odd that credit cards only go in debit,
and if you want to go into credit, you have to get a debit card.
