Tips for applying for a loan

General advice from us, the same for every loan. It is not what this organisation says; that is above.

Find the repayment terms first: the interest, the fees, how long you have, and what happens if you pay late.
Work out the monthly amount and check you could pay it from what you earn.
Check who is lending. A real lender never asks you to pay before you receive the money.

If there is an interview or a test

Be ready to show your numbers: what you earn, what you spend, what the money is for.

All our tips and messages to copy. Practise answering, with nothing kept. Received an offer? Check whether it is real, then read before you say yes.
