    I know it's like asking which is the best sexually transmitted disease
    That would probably be syphilis, killer of sex pests since the middle ages.

  • opinions4u and crazyguy, I didn't ask for opinions on budgeting. However, when I do require a sacastic response, you two will be on my list of whom to ask.



    Others, thanks for your advice. :cool:

    It wasn't sarcastic.

    If you "need" a PDL you need help with budgeting.

    Payday loans are a trap for the financially baffled to get in trouble with.

    Think of them like sticky fly paper for the economically baffled.

    These newbies are a real 'stroppy' lot when they don't like the advice and comments that they are offered. If they were any good with money they would not be asking on here. But of course they can't or won't see that.
    I can afford anything that I want.
    Just so long as I don't want much.

    I know it's like asking which is the best sexually transmitted disease, but I find myself in a situation where I am going to have to use one.

    Unlike a lot of people, I know that the money will be there to repay it on time and I have considered all other options.

    With that said, which is currently the best of the bad bunch?

    I would agree that you should exhaust all other options i.e short term overdraft/borrowing for family/friends etc first, but if it is your only option then you are best to try and maximise your cashback via quidco etc to offset the interest paid.

    My only word of advice is don't fall in to the trap of 'rolling over' the loan to the next month, this is when problems begin and you end up paying a fortune in interest. :)

    I'm sorry, not everyone is on a wage where its possible to budget for emergencies; and even those who are, it takes time to build up some buffer cash. Once you find yourself in need of it, help with budgeting doesn't suddenly find it for you.

    if your borrowing less than 31 days,.... wonga as they cahrge daily interest, whereas the rest charge a flat rate for the month...

    Also some will want to verify employment, bank statements, where as Wonga;s is completed done by the PC, and money in 15minutes.
