If you want some money saving advice:
have a fire sale of anything you can live without, this includes top range mobiles that can be replaced with working phones, laptops, home computers, hobby items.
Sell the lot to what ever the second hand shop will pay.
Pay the Wonga back and dont ever borrow in such circumstances again.
Or you can, move bank accounts, extend and just dig the hole you are in even deeper.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0 -

i'm still struggling to understand why on earth you are getting into this state when there is no mention of what your brother is doing to help. Does he realises you are risking your own DMP etc to help him out and does he understand the stress he has placed you under now?
why can't he pay this payday loan back instead of it falling to you to sell your items etc?0 -

I dare say Big Ron is going to cath up with bro if you're down to borrowing from Songa to keep him at bay...my best advice? tell your brother to do a runner to the continent."We want the finest wines available to humanity, we want them here, and we want them now!"0
