    Re: Consumer TV Series on television

    This has been discussed in various forum groups and the general consensus is that there is a need for credit to those that cannot obtain it elsewhere. Point is, apparently the public actually want payday lenders etc to exist.

    It's a weird one but it seems they'll be with us for a while - the OFT actually back a lot of their principles, it's sickening but then again what if they removed all PDL's - how would people that otherwise would not get credit, be able to get that extra few quid for an emergency bill payment or whatever?

    I hate the scum, but can also see why there is a need for them to exist, albeit I wish they were more capped and regulated, I fear doing so might make them pull out altogether....

    Its a catch 22 sadly/

          yes you had a few doorstep collectors, usually a one man business with decent rates for the less well off, with top ups if necessary, I remember seeing them go around in the early 1950s, also one man front room clothing retailer who you were sent to for fitting of a jacket or trousers and parents paid so much a week, the only other area was the CO-OP who supplied school uniforms, and you use to have to buy outright but used your Dividends to-wards the cost, parents struggled but seem to get thru it, also happened with ration books in the late 40s.

              BBC 1

              Britain's Secret Health Tourists

              Declan Lawn reports on how 'health tourists' are obtaining free NHS treatment they should be paying for - at a cost of millions to our health service. Panorama goes undercover inside a black market where NHS access is being bought and sold, and finds an NHS practice manager taking money to register health tourists. Declan also discovers how easy it is for foreign nationals to get free treatment - with many hospitals across the country not making the required checks.....

                Why homeowners face a hike in insurance premiums to cover potential flood damage - even if their properties are in low risk areas. Plus the mistakes on your credit file that could lead to you being rejected for a mortgage or personal loan.
