Could anyone tell me what happened to the Taws Family of 7 thread?
I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

Thanks - I was just wondering if it had been a wind-up as they seem to have had just about every problem imaginable.
Personally, and until someone tells me otherwise, would like to beleive it was genuine and I hope that they got some good advice from this forum:beer:

to be perfectly honest the replies weren't so terrible - i've seen far worse and i guess some ppl get very upset because there they are struggling and sacrificing everything to get themselves out of debt whereas these guys appeared to take the attitude 'we want this stuff so we're going to write cheques we know will bounce, then we're going to claim back the bank charges and we're hoping they'll just write off the debts at the end of it'.
clearly that is going to upset some ppl and human nature is that someone will be bound to say something. however, this forum is clearly and unequivocally not a place for judgement / moralising or hurling insults - doing this helps no-one. i do really think that if you cannot be helpful and something makes you cross, it is far better just to avoid the thread entirely.
at least now they are getting the help they need.carve your name in red. the silver slipping and slicing. rose petals blossom and fall. soul steals away.0 -
Also the way they went and moaned on the benefits board upset people. That thread was closed because they were just moaning not asking a serious question.Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0

I'm sorry - I did not want to dig up any bad feeling - I was genuinely curious, as I was following the thread.
I suppose that some people are not that good at expressing themselves in a clear and diplomatic manner, especially when emotions are running high.
Anyway, the revised thread looks to be less emotional, so let's start again.I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
