The decision on final approval is solely that of the lenders. The time that it takes for the loan to show in your bank account will depend on your lender and your bank.

Implications of Non-Payment

Additional interest and/or charges may be applied to your account if a payment is missed entirely. Before you borrow money make sure you fully understand the interest rates, fees and the terms laid out in the loan agreement. If you cannot afford your agreed repayment(s), this may have an impact on your credit report and could affect your ability to borrow again in the future. We strongly recommend you contact your lender in the first instance, they will need to be aware of your change in financial circumstances before they can present alternative methods of repayment to suit you. Collection processes can vary depending on your loan provider. If you do not contact your lender about your circumstances they may pass your account to a third party collections agency, or attempt to take you to court for non-payment to register a County Court Judgement (CCJ) against you.
