The scam was that with the banks tightening up their lending policy, they created the framework in which these companies can operate. I was brought up to believe that no matter what happens to you, you NEVER borrow from the provident. There is a bad social stigma against borrowing from the likes of the provident, these pay day loan companies just simply would never have worked 10 years ago. No one would have went for it. So the banks (who need more ways of making money) tighetn up the lending, fund a bunch of pay day loan companies, and make more than they couild ever dream of making through responsible mainstream lending.
Borrowing money is a choice an individual makes for themselves. As long as the terms are available before taking the money, there is no scam.0 -

but since you're the bastion of morality around here, I'll take your word for it.
Maybe if you spent less time trying to take the !!!! and more time sorting out your life and from what I gather, gambling problems, you'd not need to be posting here making a tit of yourself, right?0
