Shit... what have I just found?

[NameChange73939399]

Name changed so as not to link to other threads.

Just been tidying up while DP is at work. Went to tidy his latest bank statement into the paperwork file. I always put his paperwork away for him, but don't normally read it, I don't know what prompted me to read it today.

There are loads of transactions for apple.com/bill

Multiple transactions per day, ranging from £0.99 to £19.99. I added them up and it comes to over £700 in the last month, which seems like a crazy amount of money.

What is this? App purchases? Gambling? Is there anything legitimate that this could be?

I feel bad for having looked, it's none of my business, we have separate finances, but what if it's a problem?

We each pay some bills (nothing in joint names) but I'm due to start maternity leave in the next couple of days, I can't afford to cover 'his' bills if something odd is going on.

Any ideas? Please tell me there is a reasonable explanation.

I never spent a penny on candy crush but I'm tight

Me either. Level 700-and-something last time I checked. 😎

Haven't played for ages, never spent a penny.

That's a lot of money. I hope you get to the bottom of it.

Any update?

thats such a lot of money on gaming. I thought lemmings was expensive!

@FATEdestiny

Level 3160

I downloaded it over 3 years ago when BF newborn to keep me occupied and awake!! Not played it for a few weeks but do enjoy it when i get into it! Never spent any money though! Although i have been known to adjust the date on my phone to get full lives again

Coinmaster, Toy Blast, Gardenscapes, Candy Crush...... I'm willing to bet its one of those.

How did it go OP?

Thank you to whoever posted this. I’ve just saved myself about £30 a month

Why have I got three “Peppa World” subscriptions!!

I cannot actually believe there are people spending money on these games. I’d be wondering what sort of manchild I had landed myself if I’m honest.

Oh dear OP I hope the conversation went smoothly.

What happened OP?doesn't sounds good

I hope it's not one of those situations where money is already unequal and op is paying everything for their baby herself.

I hope you're alright OP x

hope you can update, OP.

Did you spk to him OP?

Hope it went ok op

Hope you got an answer?

Adults that spend money on in app game purchases are not entirely all there

Hope you got some answers

@CodenameVillanelle That is very offensive. I am a well balanced 57yo woman and from time to time make an in app purchase on a game. Maybe once very few months and never more than £1.99. I can assure you I am very much 'all there'. There is a huge difference between an occasional purchase and an addiction.

Obviously I wasn't referring to someone who spends £2 every few months rein in your outrage

I occasionally spend a bit on in app purchases for Pokemon and ab blast but always only a couple of pounds every month or two and I can afford it. I can see how easy it would be to spend a lot more though and know some who spend hundreds a month on Pokemon go coins.

I hope you are Ok Op

I have often read things of hubby's and when I ask he doesn't get annoyed so just ask him part of being married is sharing things even if you don't share finances doesn't mean you can't ask
