                            If you apply online, we try to give an instant decision with 1 of 3 outcomes. We’ll either confirm if you are accepted, let you know if we need more information (see below), or if you're declined.

                            If you’ve been approved, we'll either send you a credit agreement to check and sign, or where possible, you can sign your credit agreement online. We’ll then use Faster Payments to send the money directly to your bank account. Faster Payments can take up to 48 hours, and the money can be withdrawn as soon as the funds reach your account.

                            Next steps, if we need more information:

                            • If you're approved, we'll send you a credit agreement for you to sign and return.
                            • If you're approved in principle, we'll send you a credit agreement to sign and return and a list of any other documentation we need.
                            • If we can’t lend to you, we'll let you know.

                            It may take between 5 -10 days for us to check everything is okay with your application. As we try to do this quickly, we don’t send an acknowledgement email or letter. However, we'll let you know when a decision has been made. Once your returned agreement is processed, we use Faster Payments to send the money to your account.

                            If you gave us your mobile number during your application, we’ll text you when the funds have been sent. We’ll follow this up with a welcome letter.

                            For more information, or if you have any questions, please call us on 0345 600 6016* (Monday - Friday 8am - 8pm, Saturday - Sunday 9am - 3pm).
