What is a Payday Loan?
Payday loans were originally designed to pay for any immediate bills last until your next ‘payday.’ The loans would only last for 2 to 4 weeks and you would repay in full the day you got paid your salary from work. Today, payday loans have become more like regular unsecured loans. Your loan is subject to status and does not require you put down any form of collateral.
Customers can apply for up to £25,000 through Badger Loans and receive an almost instant decision. Loans are available from 1-60 months. Subject to further checks, you could potentially receive funds within 1 hour or the same day of applying. More likely you will receive your money within 1-2 working days. To get money quickly your bank would need to use Faster Payments.
These days customers can apply for payday loans that are more flexible. You have the option to spread repayments over 1-60 months, giving you more breathing space.
Badger Loans works with a list of direct, FCA authorised, payday lenders. This means you are able to receive funds and make repayments with a responsible, regulated lender. This also ensures that there are no upfront fees, hidden charges and your data is not passed onto multiple companies without your consent. Please always remember that payday loans are loans of last resort. You should try elsewhere first before applying and only apply after having made some crucial checks. Those checks include that you are on an FCA approved site and that you have checked all other avenues of finding money. Last but not least, NEVER take out a rollover loan, they are the loans that can trap you in debt for the next 20 years if you are not careful. Always repay one loan before taking out another.

How Do Repayments Work for Payday Loans UK?
Payday loans are repaid in monthly instalments over the loan duration of 1 to 60 months. With equal repayments, you know exactly how much you are repaying in interest each month. Make sure you have enough money in your bank account ready for collection on the due date.
Collections are made via a process called continuous payment authority or direct debit. These automatically collect the exact amount owed each month from your bank account. This means that you do not have to make a manual payment, go to the bank or call up the lender as this is all taken care of.
You can choose which day you would like repayments to be made, with most customers using their payday from work. This is when they are mostly likely to have money in their account, whether it is the last working day of the month or a specific date.
You have the option to repay early at any time, just contact the lender to do so. You will often save money by repaying early since you are accruing less interest overall.
No Refusal Payday Loans UK Direct Lenders
The first thing we should do is clear up any misconceptions about the types of loans on offer here in the UK. Is it possible to get a ‘no refusal payday loan’ ? The answer is no. There are no lenders in the UK who offer loans on a ‘no refusal’ basis.
Like ‘no credit check’ loans and ‘guaranteed’ loans, they don’t exist either. Payday loans have traditionally been easier to obtain than other loans due to their short term nature and willingness to lend by the lender. Please don’t let that confuse you with them being offered on a ‘no refusal’ basis though. You will still have to show you can afford the repayments, most likely prove your income and show an understanding of the product you are applying for.
Although payday loans can have higher acceptance rates compared to other loans, there is no such thing as ‘no refusal’.
