    Any payday loan company will do. They just do an identity check and if the credit check comes back that you aren't a current bankrupt then they'll probably lend you the money.

    If you know your local shopkeeper well try asking them to put the items on tick.

    :p Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) :p Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. :p

    Im sure I posted a reply earlier, ask the family member who stole it to replace the money. Why have money lying around, put it in an account.
  • I shouldnt have to worry about money going missing in my home in the first place, it was withdrawn from the post office down the road so I could get a taxi to get my daughter's items and I have tried to ask for my money back the door wasnt answered and phone calls are ignored

    Yes you shouldn't have to worry about money going missing in your home but it has.

    it's just very saddening for you and your daughter to be in this situation because someone stole from you both in your own home. Pleas try and avoid a payday loan. if you were local i would buy you the damn milk myself

    Start enjoying a stress debt free life..:beer:...now enjoying. thanks to all on MSE
  • sell something on gumtree.

    you will have the £20 by the end of the day.

    Taking out a loan with a company for £20, or the extra un-needed £30 as you suggest you would be willing to do, is absolute madness and a road to payday loan misery.

    if its for baby milk do you not have a health visitor? they should be able to offer advise and help here.

    My wife came from a home where nothing was safe, locks on the bedroom doors and never went anywhere without their bag and purse.

    Took her quite a while to get used to the fact that she could leave her bag somewhere and it will still be there and untouched.

    She was so shocked that i would come home and just empty the money from my pockets onto the side and leave it there.

    As above though, a foodbank is probably the way to go rather than a loan.
