in Credit cards
I've just received a mailshot from Vanquis card offering me one of their credit cards, and whilst it's aimed at those that are struggling to obtain credit, and I seriously hope no-one signs up for this downright greedy deal :mad:
What the card offers:
* Up to £2,000 credit
* Typical APR of (wait for it...) 59.0% - apparently based on a "typical" credit limit of £250, !**which can reduce in stages**!
* APR range of 44.6% to 69.5%
* All this for an annual fee of £19
I am absolutely flabberghasted by this and I wanted to call them to rage down the phone to no avail. as there is no phone number supplied on any of the literature - it's all applied for by post.
Rant over

Oops my bad I did do a search in the forum from the MSE site for Vanquis and nothing was returned, hence the post. And I've just posted this in the wrong thread - can I have a cliff to jump off please!
Really really sorry mods
