    I absoloutley love this forum and love how you’ve shared your story!

     

    I’m only 20, and when I was 18, I needed my dad to bail me out for a couple hundred pounds of payday loans. (You can imagine this didn’t go down well with him).

    I didn’t take the loan out to gamble, I took the loan out as I gambled everything I had worked for and couldn’t get by 4 weeks without any money. So when my following pay came in, I used that to pay off my loan and then went and took out another one because I was skint again! It was a never ending cycle! I’ve no idea what kind of state i’d be in just now if it weren’t for my dad helping in time and it makes me want to help people who aren’t as lucky as me to have someone to help them.

    2 years later I can safely say I’ve cooled my jets, I stick to £10 of football bets for the midweek champions leauge games and £10 on for the Saturday games.

    I love watching the bandit as it just gives me the satisfaction of almost playing the slot, just with money that isn’t mine and reading everyones posts here has kept my mind from ever considering going daft online again.

     

    All I can say is, thank you! You’ve helped me more than you know! Keep you’re head up, your money in your pocket, and have a fantastic Christmas and new year!

    Great advice as mentioned above, putting barriers between you and your money.

    My pay goes directly into the wifes bank and I get an allowance. Makes things a million times easier

    Just a bit of a update.

     

    To my my better judgement told the mrs before Christmas. Obviously didn’t go down well. She kicked me out. Christmas Eve when she realised I had zero presents or money to get the food for Christmas Day.

    So I don’t have any family. None that I can turn to. So yes Christmas Day and 26th doesn’t pretty much on the street. I managed to Get myself to a church on Christmas Day and spend it there.

    Ive been trying to get into a homeless shelter but this time of year from what I’ve been told it’s near on impossible. This is the first day the library was open to post this with WiFi

    Im not sure where to turn from here. All my stuff has been packed up. I’ve got 3 bags of clothes that I’m carrying with me.

    Trying to see if there are rooms to rent. But just for a basic house share room. They want one months rent and deposit off you. That was more then my rent for a 4 bedroom house. They want £800 off me lol  I don’t have 8p  ?

    Im not back till work till the 7th January. Thank god.

    Council said they can’t do anything. As I’m a single man with no children (with me) so I litreally go to back of the queue and then some.

    So things are pretty much as bad as they get right now. This is the 7th night on the steeet. I try with the night shelter place but it’s a first come. First serve basis with exsisting residents taken there spot from the night before and any body who Doesn’t turn up. Gets a spot. So very lottery

    hope all is well and everyone had a good Christmas. Something is always around the corner.

    Bit of an update. Stil on the street. Using the mc Donald’s WiFi. It was my birthday yesterday. And never thought I would be spending it on the street. How how my life got like this.

    I don’t know what to do. I’m completely fucked in every way.

    All my friends have turned there back on me. Since my mrs. Or ex has supposedly told everyone.

     

    Ive got to go back to work tomorrow and have no clothes. No way to shower.

     

    This is not worth it

    I’m reading and i am trying to accept that everything you are saying is legit and straight down the line mate but i have got to ask a couple of questions – you said in the post before the last one that you were back in work on January 7th but then in this latest post you are back in work tomorrow, which is the 2nd. It’s actually the first time i am seeing the post before last, i must have missed it when you posted it.

    You posted your last post from the Library and it was the first day it had been open you said, what time does the library open as it was 7am?! The thing that raises my eyebrow is that you posted that post from the same IP address that you posted from on December the 21st at around 5:45am – it just doesn’t seem likely that that was in the library too?

    Sorry for the suspicions, its just when little things don’t add up, it is always best to give you the chance to explain i would say? If indeed you are on the streets then it is a very unfortunate position and i hope you can talk your mrs round in to letting you back in, you were able to lose what you lost in 28 minutes as per the original post so on the grand scheme of things, i appreciate it is your months wages at that point, but ultimately you haven’t done in all her savings or anything, perhaps talking to her is the best way forward.

    Thanks for replying

     

    Well this is the same phone I have been using. The library operates a card system. You can use the library from 7 which is unmanned by swiping your card. Or you come in at 8am when the library is manned.

     

    Yes it it would be the same ip. We don’t have internet at home. It got cut off. So I always use the library to watch your videos. Or data on my phone.

    What could I benefit from lying ?

    I just thought this was forum to get advice and help. But I won’t post anymore. Or raise suspicion.

    Got to admit, I was wanting to reply but it just seems a bit Erm what’s the word??

    Hard to believe, as like u said the times of posting 7am..

    I hope to god this person isn’t in this situation BUT if he is .

     

    Mate things will get better. Your back to work tomorrow and the next few weeks will be hard, but you have done so much up to now not long till u get some wages. Then things will improve  you can get a deposit together .

    If your in need of a shower go to your local swimming baths and freshen up. Also use your Internet to check food banks and homeless help. Plenty help with clothes and food at these times . Good luck .

    But if your lieing fuck you ?

    I’m not intending to put you on the defensive, i am just asking about a couple of inconsistencies that is all – like the two posts today, are from the same place, safe to believe that you’re sat in a McDonalds on the wifi like you said, but then the post on the 21st December, at 5:45am ish, was from the same place as the post that you say was the library above – with you saying that the library is open unmanned from 7am, it just gets the brain thinking as to how that can be.

    Like i said, if you are in the situation you have spoken about then it is an awful situation, have you spoken to the mrs since you were kicked out, i think you should do if you haven’t, if you are back in work tomorrow i’m sure you colleagues and boss may well help out? I know i would if it were a colleague of mine, i wouldn’t avoid work, i’d go in and explain if i were you for sure.

    My wife’s brother got kicked out by his Mrs.  And he was living in his car . His boss found out and brought his own personal caravan on to the site and let him stay in it till he got a flat . So there are some bosses that are very understanding .

    Talking about these things is always the best way, and work is a good place to talk. It’s in their best interests to have workers who are well rested and ready for working days so usually in the best position to help if they can ?

    I get that mate I do, but if he’s anywhere near where I am working over the next few days I’m happy to meet up and buy the guy a coffee.
