    Yeah whatever you say smithers, I am not addicted to PDL's I sorted my life out and stay away from them, I just never want it to be an option that is why I am taking the advice of decent people on here and starting an emergency fund.

    But I am sure you are the most financially astute being ever so I'll take your advice as well. Not really, go !!!! yourself and stop trying to be so self-righteous, thankfully some people on here have something positive to say and try to help others.

    just laugh....
    It is nice to see the value of your house going up'' Why ?
    Unless you are planning to sell up and not live anywhere, I can;t see the advantage.
    If you are planning to upsize the new house will cost more.
    If you are planning to downsize your new house will cost more than it should
    If you are trying to buy your first house its almost impossible.

    Why do you want to delete the posts with useful info - e.g. you probably can ask Wonga to bar you, there are things you can do in your browser or router to block access to different sites, blocking Wonga will not prevent you accessing many other PDL sites...
    loose does not rhyme with choose but lose does and is the word you meant to write.
  • Apparently its not useful info to some people.

    I have never used any other PDL's apart from Wonga and I don't need to use Wonga anymore I sorted my finances out, I learnt the hard way I just wanted it to be blocked anyway, I also thought if there was a way it might help all the endless threads of "Need PDL help" out, but all the holier than thou people on here have made me think otherwise.

    You have a few options which ill repeat for you,

    1 block wonga using the router settings or via your internet (not tried either myself)

    2 tell wonga to block yourself from using them

    3 just man up and resist the urge of wanting to use them
  • I don't want to use them I don't have an urge to do so, I budget properly now and that was half the reason I used them, I just sent them an e-mail asking to be denied a loan if I ever even attempted to use their service again.
