Are You A Angry Saver?

If you've only been here 2 months you got no chance of getting credit mate, regardless of your income.
Not so sure of that. I'm a UK citizen and have spent 28 of my 44 years in the UK, and I went to my bank today and they said they can override the faceless computer which obviously doesnt take into account different circumstances like mine.
The bank manager also guaranteed me a mortgage facility if I need it :rolleyes:0 -

You have only been in your current residence for 2 months, previous address outside the UK and its unlikely your registered on the electoral roll yet. Under these circumstances it would be extremely difficult to pass a credit check - even pre 2007.0 -
I am not pro rioting - I am just surprised we aren't seeing any and I suspect it may be due to people being quite scared.[strike]Debt @ LBM 04/07 £14,804[/strike]01/08 [strike]£10,472[/strike]now debt free:j

All it needs is a minister to appear arrogant and uncaring, a sultry hot August and the rent-a - mob will make sure that any legitimate demo turns into an orgy of destruction and anachy IMHO
Hmmm, let's not give people ideas eh?0 -

Oh dear we are a very angry saver aren't we? Don't get your knickers in a twist love. How do you define a troll? Someone who doesn't agree with what you think?
I keep reading on this board how savers who have profited with large interest payments are "prudent" and deserving and have a halo over their head whilst people who have made money out of property are greedy moneygrabbers who are morally wrong.
Off you go and count your cash you Shylock. :rotfl:The forest would be very silent if no birds sang except for the birds that sang the best0 -
