Does anyone know whether there is a purchase limit on debit card purchases..... apart from the amount you have in the bank, obviously.

No definite limit, although I'm sure your bank could put a limit on depending on the Ts&Cs of your account. I paid for a car using my debit card (there was a charge for credit cards, not for debit cards). In order to do this I a) made sure there was enough money in my account; and b) rang the bank in advance to tell them I would be making the purchase. I don't know if ringing them was any use, but the payment did go through without query and the garage told me that very often they have to go through an extended security procedure for such large sums.

Oh it won't be anywhere near the amount for a new car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I'd say it would be about 1500 to 2000 and there is definitely sufficient funds available. That's a good idea about ringing the bank first though....

I recently paid for a new Volvo S40 for Mrs. (approx £14000 balance) on a debit card, having ensured the funds were in the account.
The dealer said this was the best way as I could pay for the car and collect it at the same time. Other wise we would have had to send a cheque in advance and waited for it to clear

This afternoon's Edexcel GCSE Non-calculator Maths Paper (Higher) seemed OK, a fairly standard paper. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

But why was the exam allocated 1hr 45 mins? - at least 15 minutes too long, I thought and not a great deal to tax the prospective A* candidate!

What will Friday's 'Calculator' Paper bring? I think I can guess the likely topics. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
