for some reason once upon a time i had a personal loan with the above, and promptly paid it off, with alot of difficulity!

however, thinking as its all paid off, they wont contact me again. but having moved out of my old house a month ago, i was shocked to pop back to my parents, to collect my post, and find they have sent me 4 "cheques" to pay off other debts, and roll it all into my loan.

as my loan is paid off, which loan are they going to apply these cheques to, and what if id have moved out, and someone else lived there now??

BTW - i settled the loan 2 years ago. :mad:
Debt at highest (april 2005) £19000
Current Debt (september 2006) £7600

Mortgage Pig = £31.43 and we move in on Friday (6/10/06)

:j £2 savings = £22 started 1/9/06

    You appear not to have understood to whom the first word of their title applies!

    Them - and only them!
    Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.
