I don't charge anything so no consumer debt.

Already been proven by Which magazine that a great number of the deals have already been previously offered at a lower rate.

Details are only available for 2015 and 2016 so far.

I can, no problem, as in I don't fall for this madness.

It's about time people woke up to the facts..

You are a fool.

One of my neighbours was going nuts about the debt they were in and yet nearly everyday a delivery knocks on their door bringing anywhere from one to five boxes of stuff they bought on-line. And they have fast food delivered as well!

That's what tends to happen when you're living in an affluent area.

There is nothing intrinsically wrong with debt.

Uncontrolled or unmanageable debt is the problem.

I would opine that most businesses could not operate without short term debt.
