the interest just piled on
"I'm on benefits and everything just seemed to get really, really tight. All these people were emailing me about loans and they was like really low interest. It sounded really good, so I got one when I was 18 and when I got it all the interest just piled on.
I had to pay double the amount I’d actually got out and it was just really bad. It’s hard, it stresses you out all the time, it’s hard. To other young women I’d say “don’t go and get a loan because it cripples you, it’s really hard to keep up the payments".
