Yeah people need protecting but I think folk need to be responsible for their own actions, finances and personal hygeine for that.. http://www.northnews.co.uk/res/uploa...PROTEST_15.jpg |

the irony that the twats haven't worked out yet is that by sponsoring the skunks they immediately rule out ever getting business from 50% of the north east population who support Sunderland, we all boycotted Sugar Puffs when Kevin Keegan endorsed them. Sunderland must be one of the poorest cities in the UK and a prime target for wonga

So Wonga lend you 80 quid for 14 days, you pay back 100 quid, they make 20 quid profit. So what's the problem? Banks on the other hand with their obscene unathorised overdraft fees are far worse. For instance, by going overdrawn by £200 for 10 days: Our investigation found that customers of Lloyds, which is 41 per cent owned by the taxpayer, would face charges of £85.95 over ten days. This is made up of eight daily charges of £10, a £5 ‘usage fee’ and 95p interest. In total, these fees are equivalent to an APR of 46,450,869. An APR shows the full cost of borrowing if the pattern continued for a full year.” |

Exactly. The APR is completely irrelevant and totally misses the point as most of the Wonga loans only run for a week or so.

They shouldn't have brought up Sharia Law. They've immediately lost because people will be scared that by agreeing they'll somehow be letting it in by the backdoor.
That said, the MCB is right on this. Wonga and its ilk are nothing more than loansharks with high street branches and websites. N. |
