    This cold calling salesman decided to join in with rest of you in blasting me with no apparent reason, when I express my disgust for his "a jobs a job" attitude to earning a minimum wage having a job which preys on the elderly and the vulnerable (because lets face it, most normal people just tell salesmen to eff off and try sticking to their TPS obligations) How dare someone who worked in the business of forcing people into debt try and comment!!!

    Is it possible that the reason we "blast you" is that you are a total kn08 ?

    If you think the APR is high, just compare the cost against a bank overdraft. If used sensibly, these firms provide a useful service. Money Shop were good, but now bombard you with texts and keep phoning offering you the chance to repay a day or two early (For no benefit!). Wonga were excellent, and you only pay for the days you borrow the money.
    Nice to see the BBC getting high and mighty about Wonga sponsoring free travel on New Years Eve.

    Does that mean that because you don't have such an avatar we have to take you seriously?
