Congrats!

You know what's funny? Not only our interviews are on the same day, but turns out we both honored ProCredit Bank with our humble visa fee donation on the same day )))

I am now all set too, and just waiting for the Big Day See you guys there!

Cool! A funny story about ProCredit. When I send Vika money, I put it in an account with an ATM card she keeps. Since the card has only my name on it, I have told her several times to use it only as a bankomat card, even though there is a visa symbol on it. She didn't want to carry lots of cash on the metro in Kiev, so she did "guess what" at the bank.

The call I got was "Bradik, I had a small problem paying the visa fee" . The clerk ran the transaction by swiping the card, and then said "OMG - this isn't yours!!". Vika used almost every hrvna she had to pay the fee, then went outside to the bankomat and discovered the money in the account was not available. It takes a refund several days to work through the system. Fortunately it was easy to solve the problem with another small transfer. I did however have to give our life stories to the bankers here to keep them from closing the account on suspicion of fraud When I asked her if she remembered me saying to never EVER present the card to a person, she actually started to sniffle a little. Very funny, a little cute, and no harm done.
