A big thank you to all contributors and bidders! We raised £22,457.82!
Now comes the really important part: winning bidders, please make your donation here:https://mydonate.bt.com/fundraisers/highgatehasheart, then forward confirmation of payment to authors4refugees@gmail.com ; thank you. Please use only the AFR email address, even if you have my personal one: I need to keep everything in one place; thanks again. *ADDENDUM* It’s been pointed out to me that I’ve said I’ll contact you first, so, to clarify: it’s fine to go ahead and make your payment if it’s clear that you are the winning bidder. If I don’t receive notification of your payment I shall be contacting you anyway, from tomorrow: thank you.

What do we do now if we’ve won something?? Will we get an email to settle up??

If we donate to one of the charities directly, will that count as payment IF we also get a confirmation email? I’m asking because I am always a bit wary of paying large amounts online….

Will we be contacted on how to claim the items we won after we’ve paid?? I’ve transferred my amounts.

A little confused. Sure I read somewhere that we shouldn’t donate until a winning confirmation email is received, but this post seems to say otherwise. Should we wait for the email or donate if you can see you’re the highest bidder?

emilygale3, no, you contact me, as above please. A Gardner: I don’t really think it’s fair to raise this in retrospect: it has been clear all along that paying for items you win involves online payment. There are plenty of software programs available to enhance online payment security; I recommend Kaspersky. Thank you.

I’ve won several items. Do I make several individual payments?

No you can do it all in one – but I’ll contact you tomorrow, to confirm the amount you owe; thanks.

Wonderful! So, just to clarify….. we wait to hear from you on the email address we left when we bid, then we can make total payments at that point. Then items will be dispatched. Great stuff!
