Payday Loans

Everyone has heard of payday loans. But what are they? Why do people criticise them? And what are the alternatives? A payday loan is a very short term loan, usually just a few weeks or even days.

The original aim of a payday loan was to help people get through to payday if they run out of money part way through the month.

 

Are there any risks with payday loans?

Yes. The main risks are:

  • Interest rates on payday loans are often very high. They are an expensive way to borrow money.
  • Repaying the payday loan may make you short of money again, which can lead to a vicious circle of debt.
  • If you can’t repay your payday loan, this will show up on your credit report and could damage your credit score.
  • Some lenders may be biased against you if they see that you have recently had a payday loan.

 

But if you are feeling the pinch, is there an alternative to a payday loan? To get your finances back on track again, a personal loan could be a much better option than a payday loan. For example, Fair Finance offers personal loans of up to £1000, repayable over a period of up to 12 months. You can repay your loan either weekly or monthly, and if you are able to pay off your loan early, there is no charge for doing so.

We will consider lending to you even if you have poor credit history. We understand that financial circumstances can change quickly. So as long as you are able to afford the loan repayments now, we may be able to lend to you.

It is easy to apply for a personal loan with us. The application process has four simple steps:

  • You complete a simple online application form.
  • We will check your application and contact you with our lending decision.
  • If approved, we will finalise the details with you and ask you to sign the contract.
  • We then aim to get your money to you by the next working day at the latest.

 

When you apply online, we aim to come back to you within one working day, but usually we come back in a few hours. We send you a decision by text and email, and also call you if you are approved.

So, if you are looking for an alternative to a payday loan, use the slider to check out what Fair Finance can offer, then use the Apply Now button to get things moving.
