      What you thinking SnV - Martine McCutcheon on the next ad?
      When Gold isn't enough, there is SA Gold! New to the forum and find the UE route a bit scary? Take a look at my diary here and judge for yourself. I am now saving the money each month that was making little difference to the balance and not a bit of difference to my credit file as a result of finding AAD.

        Their response assumes that everybody has access to the Internet to read and understand the Ts&Cs. This is not true. Access to the Internet by a naive or sporadic user for a loan is perilous at any time, let alone for a loan form sharks.

        Good on the ASA.

        Don't WONGA trivialise with those supposed office managers granting loans? What's good for the goose.................
