How I'm going to be debt free!

Options
I just wanted to let people know that I have an awful credit rating, have been turned down by the very worst of companies for a loan and was just accepted by my own bank for a decent sized personal loan. I would have never thought to try this as assumed everything previously said would rule this out.
If you haven't already, please go into your bank and speak to someone there, especially if you bank with HSBC, lovely people!
They offer great advice and having been struggling alone with debt for over a year I've had all my problems solved in 20 minutes.
Good Luck to everyone out there.

    If spam - not very good:rotfl:

    If not - we'll see you when you have the same amount of debt plus the loan;)
