every month roled around and i was never able to pay them off. Interest is now about £50 a month and is getting outta hand.
Gonna pay them off, cut them up and have done with it. At least i have no control over the money coming out of my account every month so that's good

how much was it for?
as long as you get fixed loans you're ok, it's when they start changing repayment rates it get's a bit shitty.
other loan (for the car) is for £5k, currently paying that off £116 a month. I kept the monthly repayments down so that i can afford somewhere to live in the near future.

i do spend quite a bit but the temptation to put it on my debit card is less because it means i have to go skint till the end of the month. Whereas with a credit card its just buy now pay later sorta thing.

I started off with a £6000 loan.
Paid that off then went to a £3500 loan (not paid until April 2006)
Most recently got a £14,000 loan (6 years left on that)
And a credit card which is currently at £900.
