    but Tixy, people HAVE been taking banks to court!

    I don't know of any successful cases where the plaintiff's argument has been 'All debt is illegal' though. Do you?

  • Do you know if I was or wasn't mentally unfit at the time, somethingcorporate?

    Gordon Hose, that's more like a respectable answer I've been hoping for.

    The ''happy days'' remark, was satire, not rejoice.

    OK, anyway people.

    Thanks for your time today.
  • Model answer Tixy. Now what's your point?

    that people make mistakes at times of stress and homelessness and no income?

    Wow. Great. Shoot them all that aren't you i say. Seems to be the only way. Christ I hope you're not in charge one day.


    Jeeeez, again with the public defamaation? Whats wrong with some of you people? get out the bloody house and meet some real people. hahah
  • Gordon Hose, i haven't read all of this, but Google is a great place to find out info. Maybe you've heard of it? (sarcasm, but with a smile)

    This isn't the actual story I was referencing. there are many many more. you just got to look for them.

    Is this a bad time to mention 'The Zeitgeist Movies'?
  • That's in America so hardly universally applicable.

    Are you suggesting you were mentally unfit? You just need a GP to agree and perhaps you may have some chance of getting it unwound - although no doubt the bank and GP will see through your money-grabbing, responsibility-abdicating sham.

    Just take some personal responsibility and pay your debts.

    Jeez, some people are unbelievable. It's always someone else fault nowadays.

    Mis-bought is not the same as mis-sold.
    Thinking critically since 1996....

    OP
    What did you do with the money?
    This may well be relevant.

    This is the gift that keeps on giving.
  • OK, I've got other stuff to get on with.

    I'm happy to have entertained you. I'll be careful in future when asking for help on this forum.

    I'm not deleting the post though. I'll use it as a study.
