*cough* Typically, 3,500 join every day, so even without any extra we'll be donating around 7k. *cough*

Shouldn't that statement actually say, without any extra we'll be donating around £1750? Or have I mis-read that?

Theyre basing it on the fact that 3500 people join a day

So that will be £1750 a day so i work it out they run it for 4 days = £7000

Ahh, cool. I'll let them off!

I always get suspicious of something-for-nothing offers esp. when a) they want my personal details & b) I see typos and/or other inaccuracies. Guess I need to turn my spider-sense down a notch or two for this one!

Come on people!
I was hoping to get 100 extra people to sign up to this, so that I could take credit for an extra £50 going to Haiti - maybe a drop in the ocean, but it doesn't cost you anything, plus the email is really good!

Thanks

Side Note:
Any of those people recieving texts from Orange (in my case) or what ever your mobile service provider is, suggesting that a text to a 5 digit number will dontate £2.50 to the fund.
PLEASE DONT TEXT THOSE NUMBERS! If you want to donate £2.50 thats awsome but phone one of the direct aid organisation numbers to make that donation. The text numbers which have been set up charge you a network administration fee and its ****ed me right off that the big cheese fat cat f*ck*rs are getting fatter off of a tragic event like this one.
Again I've nothing against the raising of money £2.50 is very reasonable IMO but what is completly unreasonable and frankly shameful is the £1.50 service charge which goes to the service provider for sending the text.

END RANT

I've signed up on my spare email address, that way I'll not get annoyed by random emails arriving in my proper inbox.
