They charged the amount in full twice, how can I get my money back ASAP. They told me they have to wait till my payment clears their account? It's a credit card, it's a automatic payment. I need the money back today and their saying it's going to take 6 to 10 days. Is there anything I can do? Should I file a police report for theft? They were not authorized to run my credit card.

The interest rates on Yen are less than 1% and US$ loan rates against property are at least 6-7%. That is a saving of over 6% per annum. Over 10-15 years that is a big saving. What must one remember before taking this course of action for a large loan?

For example, if my online statement says that my "statement ending balance" for the billing cycle is $1,000 and my "current balance" online is $1,500, would paying the $1,500 in full (even though only $1,000 is due) hurt my credit score? The extra $500 will go onto the next month's bill, but I have the money now and can pay it all off. I would appreciate your help!

Is there a private lender to loan $5,000 at 15%/ can prove income?
I have worked hard in the past year, and managed to raise my fico score to low 600.

I have only a few bills to pay off.
once I pay these off I will raise my score to get financing to invest in real estate.

Once I pay these off I could raise my score tremendously.
To do this I'm willing to pay a high interest rate.

Are there any interested lenders?
Please email me

My bank offered to increase the overdraft on my current account by £400 to £1400 so I could pay off some bills and a couple of depts. They told me I could have anything up to £2100, but I settled at £1400 as I didn't need more than that. They told me this would be available to use within a couple of days. I immediately went out and paid the bills etc, leaving about £50 spare in the account, thinking this would soon be £450. I noticed a week later that the overdraft hadn't changed and I couldn't withdraw any more money. When I phoned the bank, they told me my limit was actually £1000, and couldn't be increased. I am now screwed, as I have no money until the end of the month. Can I do anything about this? What are my legal rights in this situation?
