Default Able2buy - trick or scam?

"Buy now pay later"

There has been many of them around saying "If you pay within the promotional period you pay the credit interest free"

A company which is big in the UK and in many websites now is "Able2Buy." Do you recon there is any catches behind them?
Anyone else ever tried going into there plans and had and problem with this 'offer'?

It does seem a bit fishy at times these buy now pay later but this particular company - is there anything i should know?


Thanks.

I am just curious. Since 2 spammers replied (at least one with 2 user names) I guess I am in luck.

Do you actually think that people on a technology forum would actually go and "buy" anything from the stuff you post? I mean really?.. Does it actually happen? What kind of statistics do you people have? Just curious. It amazes me how much you people wastes your time posting this crap..

Quick.. Before someone comes and bans you for spamming, answer my question.

You've posted about this "Able2buy" crap TWICE. If you're not a spammer, you should look for a job as one.
