  • You have to be careful with the terms of service for loans and money advances. These loan sharks are ruthless! I used to work for a payday loan house and I could tell you that more than half the people ended up paying up the nose because they paid back late! I think the average payment was something close to 50% of the initial loan. Thats a lot. So read the terms carefully. If you want loan advice you could contact me also on my website: www.paymentfinancing.com. Hope this helps.. remember always read the terms of any financial service you use!

    I always buy expensive items like this, even when I have the cash in my account. Last purchase was a HDTV from PC World, cost was £1099.00, for the 32", just paid it off last week and also recieved a letter yesterday telling me it was due on 23rd March. Only bummer was, the same TV is now £699 and the 42" is now £999 :-0
