Cahoot seem to pop up more than I would have thought and the big four banks less than I would have thought, but the biggy seems to be Egg for whatever (probably now sadly historic) reasons. MBNA (whether their own cards or one of Virgin, Abbey (IIRC) et al) pop up a lot as well and people don't seem to have many good words to say about them!!I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than to those attending too small a degree of it.

Good idea Rog2 and if we get into cashflow difficulty we can raise taxes.
seriously tho, I used to know someone who worked there and although they have a reputation for never bouncing a cheque, they do have bad debtors but never go public with themDon't let the past become your future

I don't ever recall seeing Coutts here :rolleyes: I doubt they have any customers that owe them money

I've seen pretty much everyone else now. Including the Bank of mom and dad :rotfl:Leason learnt :beer:0 -
MBNA, Egg and Capital One seem to be the most mentioned in terms of credit cards. Halifax for banks0

I was wondering the opposite. Which bank/credit card don't you see on here. I can't recall seeing Coutes !!!
(Altho a new poster I've been a lurker for ages)
I haven't seen anyone with a picture loan, I doubt most DFW's are daft enough with their crazy payments! (Remember the add where you'd pay back 47k on a 25k loan? MADNESS!)Total 'Failed Business' Debt £29,043

Blackhorse have to be down there with the worst of them! :mad: :mad: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.
