More Problems

Ted 

I got another call today from the company that I had made a loan application too, the guy said that he got my fax showing my payment but it was over 30 days old. What they wanted was something that showed the balance under it’s credit limit.

My first strategy was to email a freind that had offered me the whole amount of my credit card debt to hide it while I got a loan. I’d asked if she would transfer $300 to my credit card until payday (two days away). She agreed but was busy and offered to do it tomorrow.

I felt I needed to get this done ASAP or my bluff would fall through. So I called my Dad who is living on a pension and asked him. He transfered the money straight away to my credit card while we were still on the phone. My Dad is great, he didn’t even hesitate for a second when I asked him.

Hopefully it will show up on my credit card account tomorrow and I will be able to provide “evidence” that the offending credit card is under it’s limit.

I can’t believe I’m borrowing money from a pensioner to get my credit card debt sorted out. I’m a grown up with a well paid job, I shouldn’t have to go through this bullshit.
