Payday loan adverts banned in Plymouth city centre Payday lenders never seem to be far from the headlines, often for the wrong reasons. They offer short-term loans at high interest rates, and the Archbishop of Canterbury has said he'd like to see them forced out of business. Now adverts for payday loan firms have been banned on billboards and bus shelters in Plymouth, access to their websites has also been blocked from computers in council libraries and community centres.
