    HI,

    I don't think anyone can answer that question because it's like asking how long is a piece of string. Hopefully it will be done soon, just keep checking your journal is all i can advise.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    Hi @jojo7777. It can take up to a week to clear on their system but it's important to remember that budgeting advances are discretionary and there's no guarantee you'll be accepted for one. If you give them a call they should be able to tell you if an advance is available for you.

    That's the only issue with mobiles. I usually find the further you go down the pages the older the threads.

    Yes back on my desktop now. Not going to lie using a mobile is hard work on some sites, especially as you can tell from my other thread, you cannot see the dates!
