  • when you've got the salesperson at your house giving it the hard sell you believe them when they tell you it'll soon be paid..


    A salesperson giving it the hard sell is probably the last person I'd believe.
  • Wow. If I'd known My post was going to bring out the smart Alec's I wouldn't have bothered. First and last post - I don't need your judgemental repetitive sarcasm.

  • Hi Lawright,

    dont be put off by the replies.Its just that to the more money savvy this deal never made any sense as you understood it. Sometimes pointing that out does come over as a bit snide!

    But the point remains that if you were a bit more money savvy you would never have fallen for the salesman schtick so please do hang around and hopefully you wont fall for this again. were really not a bad bunch.
