    Sure, these guys will loan you a score for 3 days, but you pay back 26.25!!!

    https://www.wonga.com/

    I know it's sterling and for the UK market but this really takes the piss, seen them advertised on sky the other day.

    APR is 2689% :eek::eek::eek:

    How hard up would yo be to go to these scum? I personally don't think i could

    You dont take out a 3 day loan for a year, so the annual rate of interest isn't really applicable.

    Jabba Wonga would be better. Think of all those nerds that may need a quick fiver before a LAN game.

    Meh,
    I don't think it's taking the piss. They are what they are. You know up front how much you're paying back so if you choose to do it can't see what they're doing wrong.
