    I think those rates are very resonable and I'd be glad to line some crooks pockets.

    Hundreds of these threads already. At least the OP only used 5 exclamation marks to indicate their incredulity rather than the customary ten.

    Saying all that, If I were lending to some of the potential "borrowers" who come on here I'd want to charge double those rates with security based on limbs and other members of their family.

    To be fair, you could charge what you like, you aint gonna get it back anyway.

    Come the first payment date, the card has been reported "lost", then the whole bank account as been closed following the advice on MSE with chants of Illegal Bottom feeder Cretin Thieves.

    have you been living in a cave OP?

    It's near enough to Wednesday I suppose

    Now we can't have that, if Wednesday's massive APR posts start apppearing on a Tuesday, then it could cause chaos - next thing you know Thursday's I need a loan for a wedding thread might appear on Wednesday.....

    ....oh wait....
