I was contacted at lunchtime today by TLG finance. They said they had the perfect consolidation loan for me 18000 for 200/month which would have been perfect.
I logon and there is a whole site devoted to them as con artists. They have taken 500 from my current account already. They said there would be a small fee.
I am devestated. I hope i get some relief and sleep if i go with abacus dmp.
Oh dear oh dear,this is terrible. Contact trading standards asap and see what they say but I am afraid you are probably just one of many who will get caught out this way. If it sounds too good to be true it usually is.

Discharged today the 8th feb 2012. View is much brighter now.
Continuing to rebuild our credit worthiness.
Ignore people who phone you up telling you they can do things for you. I would never recommend going with someone who cold calls you.
I hope you can get your money back.
Stick with Abacus - they are well respected.

The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.

He said that I had been approved the loan and the company would take a fee, but at present he needed to verify my details by taking 1p off my card------- im so stupid looking back
