Also can i point out that people borrowing money also provides lots of people with jobs and bankers with huge bonuses too. i have no problem with anyone borrowing money after all most of us have mortgages so long as the money is paid back its the ones who dont pay back that cause the problems.0

I agree as long as you pay it back, no harm as it creates and economyDon't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.0

I put it to you that you are somewhat mis-informed about how the banking system works.Also can i point out that people borrowing money also provides lots of people with jobs and bankers with huge bonuses too.
And are you saying we should be happy about the fact that tax-payers money has effectively been used to ensure the top 1% if earners can continue to be awarded massive bonuses?Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature.

I think the practical advice is good and thankfully there are plenty of people willing to give unjudgemental advice but going around calling people you dont know !!!!less fools is plain rude and of no help to anybody. Supedebt man may have lots of debt and im sure he is stressed enough about it but that does not help and is unkind. If you ask me the country is in trouble because the goverment drastically underestimated how long people would live when they gave public sector workers pensions. Millions and millions of punds are going in to these with public sector workers working flexi time or from home (translates to skiving). Also interestingly there pensions cant got down when plenty of private sector workers who have invested in pensions have lost huge amounts because theirs can - rant over but please dont be rude to people - not nice!
Well, that's a first. I've never seen the recession blamed on public sector workers working from home before :rotfl: I'm afraid any sympathy I once had for the OP has now vanished...0 -
