      I have made a great discovery quite by accident .

      When I pay for things online my bank often sends a code to my phone which I must enter before the transaction will go through . 

      I discovered that if you put the wrong code in three times, your bank will block this facility and then you can’t use your card online, but it still works everywhere else.

      I have done this with all my bank cards – it might help someone else !

      Great idea!!!!! How long is it blocked for?
      Hope you are feeling ok, I sense a bit of hope going on there??
      I am currently sitting at my computer with my coffee and a little plastic sucker thing…..lol, it helps with smoking cravings.
      Day 5…..so far so good!!!!
      Love K xxxxx

      Thank you Kathryn

      I don’t know why exactly but your comment about sensing hope has filled with hope and the expectation of good things in my life ! Yes I do feel like I have turned a corner .

      My cards stay blocked until I contact the bank to get them unblocked – which will be never because then I will have to discuss my dirty little secret with someone !

      So I have full use of my cards except for online .
      If I need to make an online purchase I can use hubby’s card .
      This is the best barrier ever – it doesn’t involve messing up my phone, getting rid of my cards or interfering with any other aspect of my life – just online transactions !
      Yes this has given me huge hope!
