*I was thinking of going to a payday loan store to cash my ebay check (since my bank account is in limbo at the moment). I discovered that God wants me to take a vacation with my payday loan!* (an article over at Get Rich Slowly had me thinking about God and money….)
My search begins
I’m searching for a check cashing place…ohh look, an interesting Google ad:
Christian Faith Financial….that sounds great! I’m a Christian!
Oh, all I need to do is overcome evil with good! (payday loans are good!?). Look, they want to help me “the Christian way”. I’m touched. Let’s dig deeper.
OK, just filled that all out. Oh wait, what is this…
This is NOT a credit application? What did I just fill out? But, that’s OK, they want to help me in “the Christian way”. I’m sure everything is going to be fine.
Wait….are all your sponsors, partners, and advertising Christians too? Wow. That’s impressive. I’m so glad I decided to go with you guys. Wait, hang on a sec, I’m getting a SMS on my phone. Oh gosh, now I’ve got 3 SMS’s….Man, I must really be loved. I’m getting like 5 text messages a minute…wait a minute…
Christian Faith Financial. You’re official dead to me. You’re the first one on my dead to me board. I started it just for you. You make me sick.

Jesus loves spam.
Yep – it’s too bad that most of the debt sites are simply trying to make more money off folks struggling with a debt problem.
Guess I am a little confused on your message and what you are trying to say.
glblguy,
I was just annoyed at the blatant misuse/lies/fraud involved with this company. Need to let off some writing steam. It was supposed to be slightly humorous. Guess I need to work on that!
it’s hard to get that sarcastic tone of voice across in print:-)
Well, I found it very humorous!
@debtkid – Well, I was frustrated reading it. Fraud is bad enough, but when you advertise as Christian and then be something the exact opposite, it just spoils the whole bunch .
The bank will still cash your check, even though your account is in limbo.
Keep up the great writing, really enjoy reading about your progress AND your positive attitude.
that is hilarious. unfortunate…but hilarious.
I hate Ebay- they are on my “dead to me” board – I will add your company as well
I am pretty leary about all the debt consolidation companies out there…I think more bad ones than good.
