So she wanted £500 overdraft. Got £8000 loan.

Then couldnt afford the repayments. WTF did she do with the £8k they lent her.

Just "vanish" did it. Also why is he offering to pay £7k off the loan and not just give her the £500 in the first place. Mug.

I've got that one in a breath:

"Then staff from a Halifax branch came out to the house and offered her a personal loan of £15,000 instead."

Do you want to know why they offered so much? It means that they can totally ignore the consumer credit act. Nuff said.

Therefore it is miss-selling, just like the pensions.
