    Give the OP time, its not the answer he wanted to hear, as is often the case on these boards, but hopefully he'll have a think about the advice given and maybe talk to his parents and decide to take some of it on board. :)

    I hope so.
    This could be the making of him.

  • I'm in the same position as you. I have a bad credit history (has gone from fair to poor in the space of a week) and i'm at the point where not even the payday lenders will give me a loan (I have never defaulted).

    I tried getting a loan with the bank to pay off my existing loans and was a straight out decline- so I very much doubt you'll be able to.

    How understanding are you parents about stuff like this?
