WELCOME FINANCE (National Campaign)

My name is Carl Pearson and I am now making it my personal mission to take down Welcome Finance once and for all and would love to hear from anyone else who feels the same and would like to join me. I am not sure which circus these clowns belong too or what spaceship they got off but enough is enough...........!!!!!

My idea is to do a TV advert or National Documentary/Story + YouTube Videos about what they have and are doing to the people of this country and their blatant disregard of consumer laws etc
email me DeeJayCarl@gmail.com to get involved / suggest more ideas!!

The compliance dept have just dealt with the latest batch of paperwork put on their desk by the FOS and quite honestly it is a joke...

I have enough paperwork to bury these robbing %$"@@!* once and for all GUARANTEED. I am a very patient and methodic person and would not say anything bad about anybody/anything unless I have cold hard facts...which I do and the time is now to use them!!! :)

Also the Credit Record Agencies are not entirely blameless and unaccountable for their actions as they put black marks on your record without consumers even being able to contest the entry in the first place. The 'Notice Of Dispute' on your Credit Record carries no weight against them.....fact!! This also needs to change!!!

    I couldn't think of a more deserving company. They seem to come up on this board more than any other company. Good luck

    Get a Facebook group going. I know it sounds lame, (I don't even use it) but with that amount of users and complainers about Welcome Finance, I think it will do your campaign a lot of good.
    All the time you're watching your back, you can never look forward...
  • Woop! Not before time! Hope this all goes well! Please ekeep us informed! I've just started a battle with them to get missold ppi back! When we got our loan from them they were charging 120% interest! Its madness!

    You are joking?! Loan shark rates! Did they threaten to break your legs if you didn't pay up!?

    Good for you, can't wait to see those baskets go down will be emailing you details of what they have done to us and FOS are hopeless, think they are in love with a couple of wf chimps! How else could they take their side the way they have done in our case.
    Be in touch before the end of the weekend.
    Keep going.
