    Oh beanielou, i am sorry you are in pain.I have my sight back and i am happy on this thread.

    When we have a reunion i reckon everyone should meet up somewhere in the middle of England. What do you think? will that be easy for you. Or are you close to Portsmouth?

    Hi all

    I found this forum and then this topic - which was the first one I looked at.

    I have read every page - boy it's taken me ages but in a funny way I feel that I know you all now! lol

    Like others have said, the change in Ann is just amazing - it's just wonderful to see that with a bit (well a lot) of support, the whole outlook on life (and debt) changes.

    Nid - you are definately a hero - the amount of time that you seem to spend on dealing with people's problems is enourmous and I hope that you carry on.

    On an aside (and this is in no way judging anyone) but I find it amazing to think that someone can rack up '000s in cc debts etc but then not have to pay it out because of this loophole - I think that if it can be exploited then go for it but it does surprise me that the loophole hasn't been closed by the banks (if it can be)


    Ann - keep on smiling and looking forward

    Hiya

    I'm nothing - just hate the banks. As for the second part of your message, it does actually sound very "judging" - it is not a loophole, and it has been repealed (04/2007) - if you need to know the details, see here:     The Consumer Credit Act 2006 - CONSUMER CREDIT ACT 2006

    Here is my lovely picture of Princess Margaret for you Ann.

    Thanks SW,

    She does look very lovely there - but she didn't end up looking like that!

    Unfortunately, I never have looked like that!
