    there may be a credible story here who knows but
    'wonga' won't appear on your credit report; simply the fact of a loan will appear

    Yes it does, the name of the company and the type (Payday loan)

    So you're saving £1k per Month but borrow at extortionate rates, for presents and holidays?

    That "corner you turned, New beginning, new plan, new person", is still some way off yet..
    The OP said that they have £1000 disposable income a month. Not that they were saving £1000 a month. Surely if they were saving £1000 a month they would have much more than a couple of thousand saved.
    I can afford anything that I want.
    Just so long as I don't want much.

    Not so 27col look at the op's previous posts, everything becomes clear.

    We've got another who is fixated on the score given by experian. You knew the birthday was coming so why didnt you save up for it ? rather than take out a wonga loan.

    Any lender is going to run for cover as soon as they see

    Account Type: Payday Loan

    It's like being out in a nightclub on the pull with a tshirt saying " I've got a STD pick me "
