    I think most people would say try not to extend it but pay it off even if it makes you extremely skint for the month.

    I agree with Moneymash, the interest is very high so extending the loan will only extend your financial difficulties. If you haven't taken out a pay day loan yet try and find another way to make ends meet, if you have try and pay it off ASAP.

    I think it's one month. 31 days.

    Finally an answer to your question....

    :D
  • If i lent you money at Wonga interest rates i would encourage you to keep rolling over the loan for as long as possible.

    On a serious note you seem on a slippery slope my advice would be get help now head over to DFW board, or call CCCS

    Is this a duplicate post or have half the responses been deleted?

    hi guys i dont intend to do this by any means i always pay off wonga each time i use them and have never rolled over. its just ive seen some threads on other sites where people complain that wonga has told them theyve exceeded their maximum rollover limit so i was just curious as to know what it was.
    apples: it might be a similar thread but not a duplicate :)

    Surely sjane23 posting history is either a troll/wum or someone who hasnt had their LBM / rude awakening?

    Your credit bubble has already burst sjane23, you are on the edge of complete collapse.
    You really need to stop this thirst for borrowing. It will end in tears.

    ive only borrowed from wonga a couple of times apple and im only trying to get a credit card as wonga does credit searches each time you borrow which reflects badly on your credit report at least with a credit card they do it just the once.
