    Hi,

    If your looking to use online loan companies as a temporary measure, i have myself used kerchingpaydayloans.co.uk i borrowed up to £1000 and they search potential lenders which as great because like yourself i obviously wanted to find the lowest interest rate, which is exactly what this website does. It should be really helpful for you, the website is highly recommended by myself, and its free as well so if you need the money for birthdays like you said then id deffinately say check this out and hopefully it will be the quick, hassle and stress free solution you need.

    Do you work for them? Sounds like a bit of an ad for them to me :rotfl:

    Edit your post Lou to take out the link, otherwise you have doubled their exposure
  • If it were me that you bought an expensive gift for, firstly I'd be really annoyed, secondly I'd be worried that you hadn't learnt anything from the whole experience, and thirdly I'd really struggle to actually enjoy the gift, knowing that you'd had to borrow money you can't afford to give it me.

    I doubt very much your loved ones will be expecting anything of £££ value, but it's important to make the effort with a card, nice message in it, visiting, phone call etc to show that you appreciate them on their birthday.

    lou67...edit your post so the scumbags can not have publicity..
    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.
