Firstly. DONT. It becomes a cycle as you need to make up the money you've got to pay back the next month. I ended up running up debts of 13k just trying to keep on top of them.
When you've seriously thought about how you are going to afford to pay it back (having done the maths) then www.wonga.com www.quickquid.com and www.paydayexpress.com are all ones that are simple to use.
Seriously though. DONT. Far better to borrow the cash from friends/family.Proud of who, and what, I am. :female::male::cool:0 -

We hear so many stories here about these things escalating and the problems that it causesSpace available for rent0 -

Gareth,
It's a fairly consistant message here about not getting a payday loan, but your response "I didnt know you could get a temp overdraft" tells me you haven't explored all your options.
I don't know anything about overdrafts on a business account but it's got to be worth an ask hasn't it ?

Talk to your bank.
Its a good idea and I'm going to look into it. The only problem I have is the banks buisness advisor, hes never there and doesnt return your phone calls. But never the less, I will give him a ring and see if I can get some more information.
Thanks for the advice guys.0 -
PLEASE do not borow from a payday loan company.
I talk from experience...Just dont allow yourself to payback loads of money..
I would rather not eat for a week.
Borrow from friends / family or make other savings
JUST PLEASE DONT DO IT0
