    Actually that is probably the best explanation of the situation. They guy borrowed 5k over 4 years, made 6 months payments, which as everyone knows would have been mainly interest in the early stages and then borrowed another 5k. Total debt at this point would have been 10K + interest, less around 50 pounds.

    Did he honestly think he was going to get twice the money, over the same period, for the same payments.

    Unfortunately the answer to that is yes then the said person normally follows it up with a claim that they have been ripped off.

    Crazy world, you get them all on here :rotfl:
