    Are you having to pay it back? Not sure why people get so wound up by it, if it was your money then fine - blow a gasket, but for the majority of people it's just a good opportunity to rant and rage over something that really doesn't impact their life.

    Pick a problem - plenty of them out there - and use your energy to help fix it, that's a good use of a life. Having a go at someone for trying to save some money doesn't make a lot of sense, especially on a website dedicated to and named after saving money...



    In answer to the point you made that I highlighted Yes I do as working within this sector the people that do not pay cut down the profits passed along to my Company so when we see people openly taking the mick it does upset me as I believe and was brought up well enough to know that if I ever borrowed I paid it back in full.


    Too many these days think the world owes them and will do everything they can to avoid paying what is due, Perhaps if they budget better on the income they have then turning to ten payday loan Company's would not be required and half the people that do this have no intention of paying back on time as they are meant to when taking the loan out.


    Payday loans work fine if used correctly and I have helped out many customers over the last few years that are very grateful they could access money when in a difficult spot, These loans are not a free for all to decide if they will or will not pay back so when people take the mick they only have themselves to blame and nobody else.
