Payday loan stupidity - misery

what if you where to give money to someone and get them to write a cheque out for you

BigDebtBoy

No can't do that, plus they would probably take the account number and stuff from the cheque and try and take the money from that account

Anyone with any ideas how best to proceed ?

Send them a postal order for whatever you can afford (I think you get these from the post officce?). Keep the receipt.

That way they have no account details or card details to purge.

Postal order is the BEST one as above

I myself paid QQ via Direct Debit on a plan and have had no problems or comeback 6 months on, of course this was from a "secondary account" which only contained the money we agreed they would collect
I even kept all the paperwork should they dare try anything - and have some faith in the DD guarantee

I've come to the conclusion the account raids happen for a reason - normally it's where people try burying their heads and think they can get out of paying

Thanks guys. I have sent them a few emails but details on who to pay anything to or where to send etc just a reply along the lines of payment overdue, please pay £175 etc

On the plus note I went to my first Gamblers Anonymous meeting yesterday

I did wonder whether you were avoiding what the actual problem was and that was solving the gambling problem. It is very good you have gone to a meeting...you now need to stick at it and take on as much advice as possible

One day at a time

Things do get better when you stop.

Yeah I have had my head in the sand about my gambling problem for long enough, best part of 7 years, but finally bit the bullet, this was the final straw of getting myself into a mess

They seem to be being a bit awkward though just saying please phone us or use live chat but have been advised to do everything via email, asked them for details to send a postal order but get the same response about phoning them and now Been asked to provide details of the debt management company I am using as I mentioned getting advice from cccs (only did some kind of online question thing, not spoke to anyone in person) So i dont have any details as I thought I could deal with this myself

Will i be best off setting up with a dmp company like cccs than doing it on my own guys ?
