Outrageous APR
Following on from the thread about credit reports and an APR of 15% being considered high, check out the APR bottom right on this offer of credit Pete received recently. How the Hell can they get away with a rate like that?

It does seem wrong that the poorest people are hit with the highest APR though.

Re: Outrageous APR
Holy Crap! That is an outrageous amount! Total amount repayable is almost double the principle loan.
