Anyone who has done this before, did you lie when they asked if you have any savings for if you get sacked/have long term sick leave.

The reason I ask is i'm wanting to lend extra money on my loan so I can get rid of my credit cards etc. But I know this question will come up. Makes no sense to me why they ask like as if I had savings I wouldn't lend money in the first place

So you want to apply for a new loan to clear exisiting debts, and externd the term of your current one?

Call the loan company, ask to borrow more on top of your current loan, then extend the term of it?

Don't lie, but why cant you use your savings to pay some of your debt off

You may loose interest earnt on savings, but that will be alot less than a loan at 6/7/8% etc in the long run

They didn't ask this time, but they did last time and when I said I didnt have any (in the event of illness etc) the guy made it sound like I wouldn't get the extra cash. Which I didn't

Cheers for the advice tho

Him - "Do you want protection on the loan"

Me - "No"

Him - "For only this much a month blah blah sell sell"

Me - "Its cheaper without it"

Him - "How will you manage without it"

Me - "Because I'll spend less time insuring it and more time settling it"

Him - "How are you going to pay it off if you can't work"

Me - "I get 6 months full pay"

Him - "What about after that"

Me - "Half pay"

Him - "So if you fall in to arrears"

Me - "I'll sell my car"

Him - "What if that depreciates and doesn't cover it"

Me - "I'll sell my other car"

Him - "How will you get around"

Me - "In my other car"

Him - "What if that breaks"

Me - "Stop worrying on my behalf AND SHOW ME THE MONEY ALREADY"

When my dad was self employed in the shop HSBC tried to get him to take out payment protection and he said ive read the terms and the protection doesnt apply to self employed people, the fella in the bank insisted he couldnt have a loan without it, told him to get his manager and the manager confirmed self employed people cant use the protection, do they get commision for selling you loan protection?
