    How often do you check your bank account?

    Listening to Radio 5 Live and Martin Lewis is spouting about how people are silly for not checking direct debits etc, people paying for gym memberships they don't use, or paying for insurance for devices or properties they no longer have.

    I don't know about you but I am very OCD when it comes to my bank account, I know exactly how much is in it, how much is due to come out and when, I am not living on the breadline, I don't need to account for every penny that I have, but I sure has hell make sure I know where they all are!

    I want my account deleted and all of my information removed, I want to invoke my right to be forgotten.

          Weekly text for each account.

          Review the bank statement when it comes through each month.

            No poll?

            Personally I check once a day - and my credit cards. In case of fraud. Nothing to do with OCD.

              I check mine via internet banking every week or two. I have very few Direct Debits as I had problems with one years ago and don't trust them. I have a few standing orders though.

                You posted that after you objected when someone said that about you?

                Are you a MP or a peer or something?

                  Those sex toys are not useless. She uses them with her tennis coach.

                    No, the sex toys are not useless. I was thinking about the scatter cushions and pot pourri.
