    Fortunately the majority of people have some self control.

    You should be looking at a debt management company e.g. Payplan to help. These are specialists who should help with your debt, borrowing more money will just compound your problem and as you say, you don't want mr Osborne to let you have it either! So he has listened to what you have said ��

    Scooge,

    When you were given the line of credit in the first place you didn't have a 25k debt. Now that you have, you are a very different prospect for any lenders.

    I think from reading your post that we can all see very clearly why the country is screwed.

    I wouldn't say its the reason the country is screwed Scooge, I'd say its because people borrow way too much they can cope with. I don't like your chances of getting what you want Scooge, your on a slippery slope or the start of the slippery slope even. A loan isnt the answer for you, you need to cut back on your spending.

    What did you spend the 15,000 on, anything you can sell ?

    When you were spending on the card did you not keep track of your spending ?
