Typical comment from a banker like you TF and the rest.
If brokers like Matt George and Money Choice stopped and considered the person behind the transaction instead of just the $ that they slid into their own pocket through misrepresentation and fraudulent practises then the world would be a far better place.
Sounds like bankers are no different from brokers like Matt George and Money Choice
TF yes a lot of people in my situation need to go to the Doctor to get them through the anxiety and depression that results from been put in the position that they have been put in. This is the human face created from the financial stress!
Don't mock people who are in extreme pain as the direct result of the actions of imprudent, predatory, irresponsible and unconscionable lending practises as Money Choice has so obviously been.
The stress from this causes marriages to split, families and friendships to fracture. It is the reason that people choose to take their own lives. To throw themselves off a side of a cliff.
Let us not forget the human factor behind these stories.
These are people. They are not stupid people. Indeed I am one of these people. I am a professional in a high profile position. I use the services of professionals like finance brokers to give me professional advice about borrowing money. If they say I could get finance and afford to hold a property then since they are qualified to give me this advice I trust them.
When you get a $100k pay rise from when you first purchased the property and you still can't get finance for the property you gotta say hey something just aint right here.
There is no question TF. Money Choice have carried out fraudulent and irresponsible lending practises for many years and as we are now finding out there are many clients who have been exposed and put in financial ruin by the activities of spruiker Matt George.
So when you have a good laugh with your fellow inmates in the financial industry can I get you to think about your elderly Mum and your Dad, maybe your wife as she sits nursing your child, or your kids as they head out to school and think I have been put in so much debt by Matt George at Money Choice that I can no longer afford to put food on the table tonight, pay for the kids to go on an excursion and sorry I can't afford to get you new school shoes this term? Now turn to your wife holding your baby and say gee honey we can't make ends meet so you have to put the baby into child care and go back to work full time.
'Cos you know TF they are the stories that I have been hearing.....and you know TF I am now afraid that one of these people that Matt George at Money Choice has financially ruined is going to choose that there only option is going to be to jump off a bridge!
So please don't insult us with your arrogance! There is a face behind the dollar sign that you put in your pocket. Not just the face of the Queen. There is a face of your Mum and Dad, your wife as she nurses your child, your children as they play in the back yard. Indeed, that face is of your fellow Australian who like you had the right to be treated fairly and with respect, who had the right to know that they lived in a country that had consumer laws to protect them from people ripping them off.
So if a great lady called Denise Brailey volunteers to offer these people assistance with her organisation "The Banking & Finance Consumer Support Association"
www.bfcsa.com.au formed to help protect everyday Australians from Bankers and Brokers then let's applaud them. Let's praise these people for standing up for what they believe in.
Especially when this lady is so highly regarded that she gets to stand up to present in the Senate Economics References Committee Public Hearing Inquiry into the post-GFC banking sector.
Denise Brailey is looking out for people like your Mum and Dad, and your wife and child, and your kids in your back yard and helping them from not having their homes taken away from them because they have been victims of imprudent lending.
So when you raise your eyes to the heavens and imply that normal everyday people who have some very big financial problems ultimately because of you banker ******s think of the everyday Australian that you represent whilst you pull that dollar out of your back pocket to spend on getting food on the table to feed your family. Because of brokers like Matt George and companies like Money Choice that money choice that you have has been taken away from them and as a result of no fault of their own other than trusting the wrong broker.
Don't ever forget the face behind the dollar sign.
Disgusted, You are a disgrace TF
