i want to get a new leather suite,so i went to DFS to see if i could get one on credit,coz i'm too impatient to wait the 6 months to save the cash,i explained that i went bankrupt just over 6 years ago,but i've kept my nose clean since,but if i couldn't have credit could someone else get it for me,they said yes,so i rang my dad,who i never ask for anything,and asked him to get me the credit and i'd give him the money every month to cover the direct debit,he said no,,i've never owed him any money or got him into trouble through my previous money worries,he knows i've got enough money every month to pay him,so why won't he help me,,do you think i'm right or wrong to feel cross with him for not helping me,my mum helps me all the time

Hey Mouse,
In fairness if you are angry with your father you have ever right to be. As you said you have never asked him for any financial help what so ever and all you ask him is to put his name on a piece of paper. I mean it's not like he has to pay the money you would be every month. In fact it doesn't even have to come out of his account it could come out of yours I cant see why he wouldn't want to do something so small to make you happy. I guess your only option left is to save the money or as a close friend to try get it for you. Hope you get the sofa in the end best of luck.

to be honest, I don't advocate pay before your getting income, I don't like pay with credit card. I think you can wait for your enough money, then you will be free to decide whether buy or not. I know you can borrow the credits from your father, I must admit this is a way for you to buy it now, but i don't agree that kind of doing some overconsuming. The best way I think is do something deponds on yourself as possible as anyone could

What you experience here is something I go through all the time. People who are unfair in their money dealings with you. People who's point of view you just cannot see. Your dad is just making sure he doesn't end up paying your bills. Six months is a long time to pay a bill and you might just default. Its also a long time to wait for something you need but its you suffering, not him. People are like that, guy, they just don't really care how you get to suffer.

I tend not to ask for anything off my mother as she has my brother who always puts on here.I think the way i look at things are if you do not ask you do not get,if you do not ask you do not know what the answer is going to be.I think that if i was you i would either save up or get a second hand settee out of the paper.I think if i had never asked before about needing anything thing then i would be a bit upset,but not angry.
