    i got mine with likely loans, £3000 with payment over a year of £3600. I have also been able to pay off a good deal of it early, and am now 6 months in to this plan, with just over £1000 left owed on the loan. Only take out what you can afford to repay!

    Definately based where they say they are, they respond to their customers and are quite responsible (they don't approve anybody and everybody) they have also stood the test of time and never needed to change their name.

    Appearing most expensive were Satsuma and Sunny when I did a check/compare after taking out my last.

    Better still, get over to Debt-Free Wannabe and ask for help with your finances there.

    Dont borrow.

    Short Answer: Nope


    Longer Answer: Still Nope


    Real Answer: Get to the DFW boards ASAP. Short Term Loans are a sign of financial distress. They are never a solution. Get reading the stickies at the DFW boards and post up with your circumstances and people can help you.


    Cross Posted with Peaceful Waters, message stands however!
