Petition Ban advertising of payday loans

More details

Ask the government to ban the tv and printed media advertising of Payday loans or loans with excessive interest rates. These companies prey on the poor and those who may not understand the interest calculations. These advertisements should not be shown in mainstream media as it normalises the idea of using this type of borrowing rather than methods.
