How does purplequid.co.uk work?
LendYou.com is not a lender and does not make credit decisions. LendYou is a loan connecting service. We connect consumers who are looking for financial assistance with independent, third party lenders who may be able to provide a loan.
You begin by filling out the simple form. Your information is then shared with third party lenders who may make you a loan offer. You are under no obligation to accept the offer, but if you do, the lender will provide the instructions to do so. Every third party lender has their own terms and conditions. Please consult these before accepting the loan offer. In particular, check for information on the APR, fees, renewal terms and consequences of non-payment.
If you have any questions about your loan, please contact your lender.
How much can I borrow?
Payday loans are usually between $100 and $1,000. Installment loans range between $100 and $5,000 and Personal loans are usually between $500 and $35,000. You will make a request for a loan amount. If you receive a loan offer, it may not match the amount you requested. Loan offers may vary for several reasons including the individual lender, employment, income and other factors.
How long does it take to apply for a loan and receive funds?
The online application takes a few minutes to complete. purplequid.co.uk will then run your application through our network of lenders in an attempt to match you with a qualified lender. This process takes minutes. If your application is accepted, you will be forwarded to the lender’s completion page so that you can sign for your loan electronically.
How will I receive my funds?
Your funds will be transferred electronically into the bank account you have provided in your application.
If approved for a loan by an independent third party lender, how quickly could I receive it?
In most cases, if you are accepted by a lender, the transfer into your bank account could happen as early as the next business day. This will vary depending upon your lender as well as your financial institution. If you have additional questions regarding the transfer time, please contact your lender.
What are the eligibility criteria?
The eligibility criteria varies by lender. There are, however, standard criteria requirements that you will be expected to meet in order to apply. This includes the fact that you must be aged 18 years or older, live in the UK, have an active bank account into which you can receive direct debits and have a regular source of income.
Why do you require my personal information?
We require your personal information in order to present your application to our lenders so they can assist you by providing you a loan. Please refer to our Privacy Policy for more details about how we use your personal information.
Will you check my credit score?
purplequid.co.uk does not run any credit checks, however some lenders in our panel may do so as part of the application process, please ensure you read the terms provided by the lender before proceeding.
