Is it just me or does anyone else want to kill that annoying spikey haired idiot in the halifax advert, then if that wasn't bad enough the original halifax guy (can't remember his name) comes on too
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Me too, they were one of my big creditors so I hate anything to do with them.
Isn't the spiky haired one small? And the other one, Howard, isn't it about time that he was retired?

Yup, small, spikey, and a voice like he's been kicked in the balls a bit lol.
Howard, that was it. I think Ricky Gervais got it right in "The Office Xmas Special" re Howard. "If i wanna talk to you mate it'll be about mortgages, alright?"

22 and abit of debt.. that increased after coming back from Oz.
Actually there's a story there that shows just how stupid banks are (as if we all didnt know)
I was working crazy hours to save for my trip was putting about £2200 p/m into my current account but hsbc would only let me have a £250 o/d . Turned me down about 2 times after that for "not being able to show the salary to cover it"
Went travelling. Managed somehow t get to £500o/d and told them i was gonna bring back in o/d they said "dont worry and increased it to a £1000.. I hadnt even paid into it for 8 months!!! sheesh

You were at that point an easy target!
You were more likely to push the o/d to the limit therefore they could charge you more money. The minute they realised there was money to be made from you they helped you get into debt - I'm not saying it is their fault as we can all say no ta - you know what I mean?!
[:)]
At least you got to see some very interesting places!
I better go an get some kipp, could chatta all night but I don't think I would make work for 7am - what do you think the chances are?
[:D]
Have a lovely sleep! X

FYI
Howard will not be making any more adverts, he has been dropped.
Feel a bit sorry for him myself, seems like a decent enough, if very annoying in some ways, chap.
