I think you’ll find the statement is on its way to you overland – unless it has been bankjacked!:eek:

You’re lucky, the Nigerian bank account I set up to free Princess Acccocola’s frozen millions has yet to send me a statement, and I have been paying thousands into it religiously. :stupid:

Almost everything is paperless now bank, utilities and one or two other supplies. Anything paid for and completed is scanned and saved digitally. So my once fat box files are virtually empty – except for accounts!!

I have a terrible tendency just to file everything; I have filing-cabinets full of the stuff but I have to ask myself why?

When do I ever go back and refer to it? Apart from bank-statements, never!

Going to go ‘paperless’ for telephone, water, gas and electricity…..when I get round to it. 🙂
