Our panel of lenders, as a credit broker, typically offers loans ranging from £250 to £10,000, depending on the lenders’ criteria and your eligibility.
The loan duration usually depends on your loan requirements, with lenders typically offering between 3 months to 3 years.
To qualify for a loan, you must be a UK resident, over 18 years old, have a bank account, and be in permanent employment, receiving a pension, or disability benefit/living allowance. Additionally, you must meet the lender’s criteria and credit affordability assessment.
Some lenders will transfer the loan amount into your bank account within an hour, depending on the lender and the amount you have requested. Full terms will be explained when you are redirected to the provider’s website.
Typically, loan providers do not have strict rules on what you can use the loan for. However, we encourage applicants to think sensibly about how the loan will be used. If there are any stipulations, these will be outlined by the provider once you have been redirected to them.
A loan may be used to pay off other forms of debt, but we advise our clients to carefully consider their circumstances and the sustainability of their financial situation. If you require further advice, free advice can be obtained from: https://www.moneyhelper.org.uk/en.
You may withdraw from the loan agreement within 14 days of signing it by contacting the lender directly via email or telephone. If you withdraw from the agreement, you will be required to repay the credit, including any accrued interest from the date the credit was provided to the date of repaying it, without delay and within 30 days of the day after you gave notice of your withdrawal.
Yes, providers must offer the option of paying off a loan early, including full payment and partial payments. Some providers may have early repayment charges, which will be explained from the beginning of the application on the lenders site.
Once you have filled in the form, you will receive an instant decision from loan providers or alternative products on our panel. You will receive confirmation of your results via email and/or SMS. If you do decide to go ahead with an application for a product, the provider may have their own criteria for contacting you, however this will always be explained during the process. We may infrequently provide marketing and advertisements to the details you have supplied, however if this is not desired, you may opt out of marketing during the application process. You may also do this at any later point by using the Opt Out Page on the website. You are also welcome to request to be opted out by letting us know at: Customer Service Department by email: support@directlend.co.uk
We are a credit broker, not a direct lender and therefore the service that we provide is to try and match your details against the acceptance criteria of the lenders on our panel, who each have their own acceptance criteria. Commission is paid to us directly by a lender and is dependent on the outcome of a customer’s loan application, therefore our customers do not pay any costs directly to us.
