CAN YOU AFFORD IT?

2. Don’t borrow more money than you can afford to repay, always use a loan calculator where possible to work out your monthly repayments. Or ask for a written quotation.

TO BE SECURED OR NOT TO BE 3. Secured loans range from £1000 to £250,000 and they’re a great way of releasing equity on your property. Repayments range from 3-25 years depending on your circumstances and rates can fluctuate. Ccj’s, Mortgage Arrears, Defaults and no proof of income are accepted by specialist lenders. APR (Annual Percentage Rates) may be considerably higher if you have adverse credit.

READ THE LABEL

4. It’s not unusual for loan companies to charge adverse credit customers a fee upon completion of a loan. Fees vary depending upon lender and clients circumstances. Always read small print before you sign dotted line.

YOU SHALL GO TO THE BALL

5. Compare lenders before you apply, you may have been declined in past but this doesn’t mean other lenders won’t accept you. If in doubt seek independent financial advice, FSA (Financial Services Authority) has useful links to financial advisors.
