Either way, they'll still be trying to offload them at a Tenner a time this time next year.

Why is Quick Quid so bad? I don't see what the big deal is.

Apparently the new shirts are only a tenner each from day one, payable in ten instalments of £7.20

They're borderline legal loan sharks who prey on people in unfortunate circumstances and need a quick "short term" loan for whatever needs, then they demand ridiculous amounts in return due to obscenely high interest rates. Shady company with very shady practices. As Insane said, all companies are shady to an extent, but these guys go even further. Seriously if they are our sponsors I'd consider doing the only thing us Brits can do in a situation like this, and write a strongly worded open letter.
To be fair to them, their rates are barely half of the really big ones !!!

Borrow £200 for 28 days.
The total charge for credit is £50.
Interest is fixed at a rate of £50 per £200 loan (326% per annum).
The Total Repayable is £250.
Representative 1734% APR.

Before anyone leaps at this great offer give me a call, I'm sure I can better that !!

So it's drama to answer someone's question and explain just why they the general public has such a low opinion of them? This forum confuses the living hell out of me sometimes...

what kinda bank has ever lent out £200 ?

for any lenth of time ?

unsecured too ?

a bank might let you to borrow a grand minimum for 12months at about 12-15+% (at a guess , its like a state secret nowadays) , if you can prove youve had money coming in regularly for about 7 years.

at least these short term loans places tell you whats what on their websites.

banks dont like lending money out.

i'm just saying it's like a different market. possibly one more likely to actually lend you money should you be in need of it.

the moral thing peeps seem upset by , i dont see.

folk were less arsed about reebok's shadey stuff.

but all we got were "oh no! the reebok might change it's name!" when 188bet rocked up.

Thanks for the explanation, I had kinda figured it was something like that, but thought perhaps there was a particular incident.

I still don't see a huge problem. I'm sure there are people who have dug themselves a hole by taking out multiple loans, but I'm also sure there have people who have been saved by the loans.

Not sure how "different" the approach can be. Basically it's still play records, read out teamsheets and dedications, encourage crowd to make noise.

"Embrace a different approach" is the employment equivalent of "it's not you, it's me. But either way, f**k off".

Maybe they'll start playing Here We Go Again and My World Is A Football. Who knows, maybe we'll even have Big Darren dancing to The Floral Dance behind the goal. :oyea:

Quick Quid... my objections to them as sponsors lies mainly in the name. They sound so cheap, so infra dig. I mean where do they think we shop... Iceland?

:lol: Exactly, forget all the moral posturing. Really we'd welcome a specialist land mine company as long as it sounded classy.
