    Cutting off the supply does not cut off the demand.

    Okay, lets run with it. Close down all the PDL companes and high risk lenders.

    People with a chequered history have a boiler explode or the car fails it's mot.
    Lets just let them freeze in winter and walk 10 miles to work until they can muster the funds in a Months time.

    They are going to go £50 overdrawn which will attract HUGE fees from the bank...much more than a PDL would cost them....Sod em! let them go bankrupt and get repossessed.

    Alternatively they could sell the PS3's, plasma TV's, cut off their SKY TV and give up the fags and booze, also spending cash down Halfords on big exhausts and Woofers for the boot ;-)

    I think, judging by his posts, luck had nothing to do with it.

    The trouble with making these "muppets" wait for their money back is they will just keep piling on the interest. Get in touch and sort out a payment plan. I honestly hope I NEVER have to contact loan companies like these but I do understand that for some people they are the only option to feed your kids. BUT if you have to use them just once, it should be a wake-up call to change the way you live and run your finances 'cos they are NOT the kind of firm you want to be regularly dealing with...

    As an aside, I have a solitaire app on my iPhone which is the freebie one, so I get an ad pop up every time I go to play it. Wonga have now started advertising on there and apparently I can simply click the button on my iPhone to apply for a loan.... Unbelievable!!!!

    I not at any time even exceptionally noticed, tbh, it's principled a factor of me. I guess in theory, I believe in realm of possibilities, but in convention it didn't irritation me.

    It seems the black bands are sized differently from the go of the dress! on the gunmetal i ordered, the sooty bands outbreak okay, but the entr'acte of the fit out went on too easily.

    You make less sense than Chris if that's possible?
