Why a Debt Consolidation loan could help you

Juggling multiple repayments can make your finances complicated. By consolidating all your borrowing into one manageable repayment with a lower interest rate, we can help you tidy up your finances and reduce the amount you repay each month. Our Debt Consolidation Loan can help by:

  • Reducing the total amount of interest paid
  • Reducing your monthly repayments
  • Having a single repayment, straight from payroll or by Direct Debit, in one manageable place
  • Making budgeting simpler, with one payment instead of many

Speeding up your assessment with Open Banking

Open Banking is a safe and easier way to share your bank information with us, if you choose to. It lets you connect your bank account securely so we can see your recent income and spending. This helps us understand your situation and make a decision faster. Open Banking is read-only. That means:

  • We can see your recent transactions.
  • We cannot move your money.
  • We cannot make payments or changes to your account.
  • You stay in control at all times, and you can stop access whenever you like..
  • Using Open Banking is quick and usually takes just a few minutes. It also means you don’t need to find and upload bank statements, which can slow things down. If you’d rather not use Open Banking, you can still apply by sending us copies of your last three months of bank statements instead. These must show your name and be clear and complete. If anything is missing, it may delay your application. For most members, Open Banking is the easiest and fastest option.
