    Hmmm..... Another thing to consider, will Wonga accept a credit card for payment ? Or are you planning to take a cash advance on the card ?

    Wonga payments on a credit card, don't go down at all well with the card issuers. But then again, neither do big cash advances !

    Suggest you take a look back over the posts and decide your best option.

    Hint: Your best option is not to offer token payments of a quid a month.

    Nasty??? Seriously?

    I consider you beyond all reasonable help, reply after reply is trying to help you get out of that tradition of payday borrowing.
    It seems you are happy enough with it irrespective of the disastrous effects it is going to have on you.

    With 9 years experience in this field of making apps you are yet to make any money out of it.
    I don't think you really care what happens in the future so neither do I.

    Good luck with your DMP and possible BR

    I'm out.

    Again your comments mean you haven't read my posts properly.

    I knew the kind of response I'd get when I said I was developing Apps, but the 9 years stated was in the field of computer programming, from 98-07 which is clearly before the app industry developed. So comments like "With 9 years experience in this field of making apps you are yet to make any money out of it. " is only rooted in a continuous attempt to try and make me out to be something i'm not.

    And again, I've never said "nah I'm going with the £1 token payment for life, boys" so your other comments making me out to 'beyond all help" are also unfounded.

    At the time of posting asking about £1 payments etc, I didn't have the CC option, that only came when I got a new account. I stated several times about it now being an option and trying to figure out the best way to go when all options are confirmed and all possible developments are considered.

    I really appreciate some of the answers on here, even some that have been slightly arrogant and judgemental, I realise it's a bad place to have got myself into; but continuous statements trying to make me look like i'm saying or doing something i'm not is just not correct.

    As soon I posted the same enquiry on another board, I was warned about some of the blind, wilful and continuous commendation abundant over here.

    Oh well, thank you for all the thoughts, even if you wielded a hefty bat with 'judgement' scrawled down the side. I'm not blind the the situation and expect some stick, some has gone beyond that, perpetuating wrong assumptions, but I will post again when I've made my decision on what to do on Monday.

    Cheers

    I like the way you phrased your hint, a bit of cheeky black humour (which has a lot of weight), but not needless hate. Thanks.
