Debt pronWatching TV the other day we caught one of these "Bank of Mummy or the Wife" type shows and we thought, "This is Debt Pron." I.e. peoples financial problems exploited for the voyeuristic pleasure of others. Then we thought, "We bet lots of people on B3ta have massive financial problems. Let's exploit them." So, confess them all. Dodgy credit cards, lending money to some bloke in the pub, visits from the bailiffs, using one card to pay off another. We want to wallow in your fiscal pain. So, what is your biggest money fuck up?

A friend of mineWas heavily shafted by Barclays during and immediately post-university, so he now keeps a Barclays account open and uses the card for transactions under £5 - tube tickets, socks and the like - because on transactions that small the bank loses money. He remains a small but persistent drain on their profits.
