Like so many other posters, you tell us a story and, when you don’t get the replies you expect, you embellish it. If you’d have mentioned about your illness in your first post, the replies may have been different.Wow so many judgemental people on here. For the record the loans were taken when I was mentally ill and undiagnosed with Bipolar and were back in 2011 /2012.
As for bankruptcy, your comments fall on deaf ears... Yesterday marked 16 years since I declared myself bankrupt... And since my last payday loans in 2012, never touched a payday lender before. Have a pretty decent credit rating with two prime 0% CC and zero debts!
Doubt it though
I came into this world with nothing and I've got most of it left.0 -
