    Do they do bolt-on options like pineapple or mushroom?

    Wasn't Henry's Court Case deferred until around now?? I'm sure it was Feb/Mar time.

    Yeah I seem to remember HH said it was in Feb.

    Dave wasn't sure as he was on his way to Mercury at the time to escape the road signs that watched his every move.

    shonky loans?
    LOL

    @fishty - JustEat (the broker) did mention the option of pineapple, but I declined paying their £47 fee - they offered to put me in touch with other providers like Domino's and Pizza Hut, but I've been stung like this before... How on earth did they get to use my credit card? All I gave them was the long number, the security code on the back with the expiry ?!:p

    Serverking - did you give the pizza people your card??? It may have been skimmed when you handed it over! Better check your bank account too!!!

    they're skimming my card like Wentworth and Loan GoGo... ;)


    The problem with these so-called 'brokers' are is that they can snare the desperate - I found another one called Creditextra - these crooks are smart :D - they will always have people down on their luck to prey on....:(

    I filled out an application with LoanGoGo earlier on. That will be an interesting conversation when they call.... I gave them the number for Yes Loans :)

    Yeah, I completely agree mate.

    Joking aside:

    Unfortunately people at the lower end of the credit system are preyed upon. After all, they have to be pretty desperate to accept the terms these "brokers" offer. For people who obviously must be desperate to accept such high interest rates ultimately make the situation much worse long term. I can't believe the amount some people have had to pay back on here and financial poo it leaves them in!!!

    I have had pretty bad credit history in my younger days and have always avoided the loan sharks - and boy am I glad I did.

    I have just looked at gogo website and it's quite clear how people could get suckered in. There are so many brokers out there, people just don't see it coming until it's to late.

    When your own bank say no, and all the other mainstream lenders say no, it should be clear you aren't going to get a loan.

    A random company no-one has ever heard of before crawls out of the woodwork with claims of "We can Guarantee you a loan", shouldn't the alarm bells be ringing?

    The Broker scam is one of the simplest scams to identify, it takes mere seconds to unearth it as a scam. So simple this could be classed as a Self Inflicted injury.

    The simplicity and blatant obviousness of it is why people are often less than sympathetic.
