I forgot all the financial/law advisors on here are more qualified than solicitors.
If it was a live program it would have been bad.. Given its a recorded program.
What happened is unforgivenable. that they are giving out incorrect advice.
Not the 1st time this has happened either on this type of program. Same missinformation on the one that the 3 woman present....
Instead of getting some overpaid and under trained person on. They should get someone from a bank that deals with these issues day in day out.Never ASSUME anything its makes a>>> A55 of U & ME <<<0 -
You clearly shouldn't be allowed on the internet then, for your own safety.Well go to the credit card board, All the arm chair financial advisors telling people what to apply for etc
This place is dangerous, Remember when icesave went and all the financial advisors shut up for a minute.

I didn't see this particular show, but The One Show IS a live show (as far as I am aware, and the BBC seem to agree with me). Of course this article may have been recorded, so if that was the case then the remainder of your comment is valid.0 -
