  1. No. it does not prove that. What it proves is that the banks have a procedure to follow after the death of an account holder and it seems from the wording of the OP that this woman did not inform the bank of her husband's death at the time as she is required to do by law. That would prompt enquiries.
  2. This is why it's sooooo hard being a man!!!! NOWHERE in this story does it say "man," but already men are being blamed!!! It does mention a "boyfriend" who is likely to be a man.
  3. "Not much use if you have a family emergency". Potentially losing your property isn't much use after the emergency, either.
  4. "...which is why the problems with taxis continue and always will". Regarding the airport taxis, the problems continue to exist because of passengers who accept rides from drivers who have already tried to scam them. If they refused the taxi, reported it to the airport desk and took another, it may eventually dawn on the shysters.
  5. The moral is, never accept a taxi driver who has already firmly established his dishonesty by "changing his mind" about not using the meter, it will always end in tears; there are plenty of other drivers who are not <deleted>.
  6. Odd how "someone" found your 100% positive and clear comment about your taxi choice to be "confusing"!
  7. Oh, no, the end of Lazada...I heard that the receivers are on their way already!
  8. Maybe no one has needed to chat with him, not every purchaser has a reason for chatting, can't blame the seller for that!
  9. Maybe it was "binned" because of the UK connection, HSBC is a British bank.
  10. No it does not indicate that. The only thing that is indicated is that a layman in Lagos or India speculated that was what may have happened with no evidence confirming it whatsoever.
  11. His words... "Yes it has been known before . There was an explosion caused by a mobil phone one time that I have read about when the user received a call while filling up the tank".
  12. Which posters have ‘asserted’ that leaving a car running or using a phone while refuelling is ‘likely’ to cause an explosion ???... It's fairly obvious to whom I'm referring if you've been following the thread.
  13. We agree... the dangers of using a phone while refuelling and leaving your car running while refuelling are exaggerated.... Does that mean there is no risk ? No, it does not, necessarily, mean that there is o risk but, as there are apparently no confirmed incidents of such explosions, I'd say the risk is minimal. It sure wouldn't stop me from using a phone if I had to or letting the engine run. My comments are based purely on some posters' assertions that they are likely to cause explosions, nothing deeper than that.
  14. You advised me to send you a link to verify of any explosions from filling a fuel tank . Any way Mr Lou , I found a excellent article on the subject in the Washington post titled people that fuel up with engine running debate . Take a look and get educated. Have a good night sir I didn't give you any advice but I did suggest that as the one making the claims about explosions you should be the one to prove your assertions. "I found a excellent article on the subject in the Washington post titled people that fuel up with engine running debate" A link to an article that doesn't require payment to read it would be much more interesting, particularly if you can find one with conclusive evidence that a running engine has ever caused an explosion.
  15. You are doubting the rational because you don’t believe the risks Exactly.
  16. As no one, so far, has produced anything that conclusively confirms that running engines and mobile phones have caused forecourt explosions, perhaps I am right and the dangers are extremely exaggerated!
  17. isn't using a mobile phone whilst re-fuelling frowned upon ? Yes, apparently, but phones are not "banned from petrol stations" as a couple of posters are claiming.
