• Spread your repayments over 1 to 5 years for Personal Loans of £15,000 and less
• Spread your repayments over 1 to 8 years for Personal Loans of over £15,000
• The first repayment is due 1 month from drawdown
• Repayments will be taken monthly from your nominated current account

• If you're using any part of this loan to consolidate other lending (including combining these into a single loan), it's important to consider not just the interest rate and monthly repayments, but also the term of this loan compared to the remaining term of your existing loans/other lending
• Spreading your repayments over a longer term means you could end up paying more overall than under your existing arrangements, even if the interest rate on this new loan is less than the rates you're currently paying
• You should also consider if any early repayment charges apply and if this form of borrowing is appropriate for your circumstances

• At the start of the loan, we calculate the total amount of interest payable (total cost of credit) and spread it out over the loan term. We calculate the interest due from each monthly repayment based on the number of days between repayments and the outstanding capital balance. This means we collect a higher proportion of the total interest at the start of the loan, when the capital balance is bigger, and a lower amount towards the end.
• If there are delays between repayments, then more interest will accrue during that period. For example, this can happen if the payment date you choose is more than one month after the date you sign your agreement, or if you take a payment holiday that isn’t shown in your credit agreement. Although we will never charge more total interest than shown on your credit agreement, this could mean that the rebate you get for settling your loan early is lower, or can go down to zero.

• You can repay your loan in full at any time by giving us notice in writing, by visiting a branch, or by calling us on 03457 404 404
• Once you've given us notice, we'll give you a settlement figure. You must pay all the amounts owed if you want to close the loan
• If you make an early repayment, there may be a reduction in the amount of interest you pay. This will be reflected in the settlement figure
• The settlement figure includes interest up to the date that’s 28 days from when you tell us you want to repay the loan, plus an additional month

If you think there might be a change in your circumstances that could increase your outgoings or reduce your disposable income, please contact us by phone or in branch for further guidance. Changes to consider are:

• Employment changes such as imminent retirement, maternity, paternity or extended leave
• Reduction in working hours, fixed contract end dates or zero hour contracts
• An increase in living costs such as rent or mortgage repayments

• You can apply to borrow more money by applying online, by phone or in branch

Loan interest is calculated based on how much you want to borrow and for how long. If you have an APR of 6.6%, you’ll need to work out 6.6% of your decreasing loan over 12 months.

It can be complicated to work out the interest yourself, so it’s a good idea to use a loan repayments calculator to get a better indication of your interest.

A loans repayment calculator can work out your monthly loan repayments for you.

You can also divide your total amount repayable by the number of months you wish to borrow the money. If your total amount repayable is £10,000 over 12 months, your monthly loan repayment will be £833.33.

A loan calculator helps you estimate your monthly repayments and total amount repayable before you take out a loan.

The calculator uses loan details to work out your repayments. These details can include:
