    Or just apply to Ocean finance?

    We've got more going out than we've got coming in!

    Stop, don't worry!

    Who would be the one pulling ridiculous faces, whilst not actually being next to the phone and therefore unable to hear anything of a phone call that started 3 seconds ago.

    That ad really bugged me.

    What really bugs me about the adverts for Ocean Finance was that they were aimed at people who obviously had poor control of their finances and difficulty servicing their debt- and then stated that the loan could be used for any purpose such a car or a holiday!
    Personally, I am pretty annoyed that Wonga.com advertises on the Saints site, but I gather this was negotiated by the Football League. Immoral business in my opinion.

    You are of course, right CF. These people are the same, if not worse, as the old money lenders of Victorian days.

    Take Bright House. Buy a TV week by week and pay 3 times the sticker price at any high street store, by the time you've finished, but woe betide you should you miss a payment. The ad shows young, smartly dressed types, enjoying their new found freedom, that only an LG 42" Dolby down town surround can bring.

    The reality. Where to begin, I don't think I want to actually.

    Well it's no surprise they make so much money. I know someone at University who went to one of those companies to get the money for the deposit on a house, something like £600. No idea how he got it as he had no job or income. You can guess the rest of the story.
