2009 Television Ad QuickQuid.co.uk - Payday Loans

[bcerochford]

The narrator man gets out of breath at the end here....lol. And the woman actually looks delighted at the fact that she has to take out a loan.

I love this ad, watch it at 0:43 where she subtly shakes her head at "it's so quick and simple", if you don't know what that means watch Lie to Me with Tim Roth and you will see the person in the ad thinks what she is saying it total rubbish.

@ 0:43

so fucking simple ?

@adamguru

lmao just saw this on tv an thought the same thing haha

[preytec]

why doesn't she just pay half of the tv licence this month and that way she'd balance her books and next month she wouldn't have to pay the council tax or water bill only the car, food and the other half of the tv licence.

lucky for her she doesn't have to pay rent or a mortgage

Well if it worked for Juan Sheet and Plenty paper towels then why not. I've heard this advert been talked about atleast twice on radio broadcasts

[jcairns111]

Premature reaction. Poor acting.

2356% APR??? And you're committed to sensible lending??? Thats DISGUSTING.

[QuickQuidTV]

APR stands for annual percentage rate.  APR is describing how much a loan would cost if the loan was borrowed for an entire year. QuickQuid only lends short-term loans. Short-term loans are typically borrowed for four weeks. The law (Consumer Credit Act 1974) requires QuickQuid to list the APR simply for the fact that it’s a financial product, but APR really has nothing to do with a four-week loan.

[QuickQuidTV]

For example: If you borrow £100 from QuickQuid for four weeks or one pay period, the maximum amount you could be charged is £29.50. If you borrow £200, you’d be charged £59. Borrow £300 – charged £88.50. So you can see that though the APR listed is very high, the actual cost of a cash advance isn’t so high.

If you have any more questions, we would love to get in touch with you.

@QuickQuidTV Or, you know, there being whole companies who could offer a month-long loan at (And I know this will surprise and amaze you) UNDER (That's right, UNDER! Call now!) 500%? Some go even lower, if you can believe? Some companies manage to make a profit without bankrupting everyone they can!

@karimamannan If it takes a year to pay back £100 pounds you deserve everything you get.
