Q.
How much can I borrow?
A. With a LoanGiant Loan, you can borrow any amount
from £5,000 to £100,000 and repay it over
any period from 5 to 25 years - just select the monthly
payment from our chart that suits you best. There are
no hidden costs or charges.
Q. How long does it take
to get a decision?
A. If you apply online, we will give you an immediate
'in principle' decision and send out your loan offer
that same day. You'll be under no obligation, and no
sales people will call at your home.
Q.
From approval, how long does it take to get the cash?
A. This depends on what type of loan you take out. For
secured loans you can usually expect to receive your
cheque within 14 days, however, if your loan requirement
is urgent and over £25,000, you can expect to
receive a cheque even sooner.
Q. What can I use the
loan for?
A. You can use your loan for any reasonable purpose.
Whether it's to make a large purchase like a car or
boat, to take a fantastic holiday, or to pay off any
existing debts, we can help. Your loan is for you to
spend how you see fit.
Q. What if I am ill or
if I'm made redundant?
A. You can insure your payments so that you won't have
to worry if you lose your job or are off work through
accident or sickness. We strongly recommend that you
take out this payment protection because your home is
at risk if you do not keep up the repayments on a mortgage
or any loan secured on it. Our payment protection gives
you and your family extra comfort and peace of mind.
Q. What if I die before
my loan is paid off?
A. The loan will still need to be repaid by your estate,
but you could choose to insure yourself and your partner
so that the loan is immediately paid off were either
of you to die during the period of the loan. This life
insurance is highly recommended.
Q. Can I repay my
loan early?
A. Yes, you can repay the loan back at any time. The
method of calculating the amount of money required on
early redemption will be stated in the loan agreement.
We will also send you a copy of the FISA borrowers information
guide which will explain the procedure in detail.
Q. Can I cancel the loan
at anytime?
You are under no obligation whatsoever. You can cancel
your loan at any time up to completion without incurring
any costs or penalties, unless you have already instructed
us to carry out a mortgage valuation and you are taking
out a mortgage. Otherwise there are no costs or penalties.
Q. Are there any upfront
fees?
A. No. With Loan Giant Personal Loans, there are no
upfront fees whatsoever. On some occasions you may not
qualify for one of our mainstream products and, if this
is the case, we may add a fee to your loan to cover
the extra processing costs involved, however, this will
be fully disclosed on your loan documentation. It will
only be payable if and when your loan completes. You
will not have to find the cash, as the fee will be deducted
from the loan.
Q. How confidential
is my application and my loan?
A. 100% confidential. We treat all applications in the
strictest confidence and at no time will we contact
your employer or bank except with your permission. The
selected loan provider will need to contact your bank
to arrange the direct debit for your repayments. For
further information, please see our privacy & legal
page
Q. What types of
finance are available?
A. With Loan Giant Personal Loans we give you the choice.
You can take out a loan that's secured against your
existing property (a secured loan) or one that is not
(an unsecured loan). You can also choose whether you
want to have a fixed rate of interest (the amount you
pay back every month stays the same for the initial
period of the loan) or a loan with a variable rate of
interest (your monthly repayments will change, moving
up or down in line with general interest rates).
Q. Can you help
me if I want to remortgage my property?
A. Yes. Simply apply online. It's very straightforward
and we'll take care of all the administration for you.
With a remortgage you repay your existing mortgage and
replace it with a new mortgage for a larger amount which
is also secured on your property. Remortgages tend to
be at lower interest rates than secured or unsecured
loans.
Q. What if I have a question
that hasn't been answered above?
A. Ask us! email us at contact@loangiant.co.uk We'll
be happy to answer your questions and help in any way
we can.
