    I was hurt to find people accusing me of abusing the site.

    I have a serious health condition the I see the GP for regularly.

    You really need to get your facts straight before accusing someone.

    In a previous thread you mentioned that you were due to speak to the mortgage company, CAB and life assurance company.

    Has this helped you at all?

    I think people don't believe your debt story, like you said your gp and benefits people don't believe you are ill.


    maybe its time to leave this whole forum? every one of your threads ends with you being hurt/upset/angry.


    there are other sources of mental health support out there, good luck

  • I don't know if this thread is true or not but, like chesky, I'm somewhat shocked/dubious, that the OP could run up £10,000 of debts, in just one month.

    Agree Bob, I try to take people at face value, and offer genuine advice where I can.


    But this thread does seem a bit like a script from a soap opera, I too am dubious of this "10 grand in a month" claim, unfortunately we have no way of knowing when a thread is genuine or not.

    We also have the "A friend just paid all my huge debt off" post when the OP got unhappy with being questioned a while back.

    I'd agree that they have a problem, but I don't believe that it is financial.

    Hopefully the people who run this site see what kind of people you are.

    What kind of people are we?

    Cynical people?

    I wasn't aware cynicism was against the T&Cs?
    Hopefully you will rot in hell because God wont be around to save you!

    I can't speak for my fellow FMs, but I don't believe in God, so I shan't be expecting him/her/it to save me from anything.

    Doesn't sound right to me, Bahrain is a dump, much nicer places to go for three weeks

    It's either the site, or your friend. As you wrote recently
    I am pleased to tell you all that money owed to me and a gift from a good friend means that I am debt free.

    Were you for real, you would of course now give the friend the holiday. No one with an ounce of decency in them of course would take money from a friend and then blow everything on a holiday.
