Neighbourly "quick loan" advert policy update
Just wanted to let everyone know of the outcome for my request to Neighbourly to remove the advertisement for a company that was advertising short term loans at 1% per day interest as well as on the order of 20% loan initiation fees.
Nieghbourly has decided to decline advertising from "quick loan" companies, and has removed the advert that I and many other had considered offensive in that the company harms the most vulnerable in the community.
This was a very happy outcome! Thanks for everyone that expressed their opinions on the subject.
Regards,
Joe
