Cash Converters and Pay Day lenders are the modern pariahs that afflict the most vulnerable in our society, people who are doing it tough for whatever reason.

The Govt. should legislate hard against these Loan Sharks and drive them out of business.

Reasonable provision should be made through Centrelink to deal with the resultant problem. I am not talking handouts but a short term loan at reasonable rates would be a way out.

Banks only want to lend to people who have craploads of collateral.

A MAN who claims he was trapped in a debt nightmare after being recklessly granted dozens of payday loans has launched a legal challenge against Cash Converters.   Huh

Disability support pensioner Ronald Hayes claims he was forced to rely on food handouts after he was given at least 64 payday loans in three years.   Sad






Cash Converters practice is ABHORRANT


But REALLY ...

"at least 64 payday loans in three years" ?


Were there no WARNING BELLS regarding the rate of interest ?


I KNOW the STUPID need to be protected - but how far do you need to go ?
