Phone Tapping Saga Continues, But Do We Care?

July 20th, 2011

The phone tapping saga continues with Parliament being steeped in debate about our Prime Ministers involvement in the sordid relationship with Andy Coulson. Whilst this has upset many people in the UK, it really does not affect the day to day lives of ordinary British people – indeed, research has indicated that public interest in the BSkyB ‘relationship’ with David Cameron is fading fast. It is a valid point, that people are more concerned with their finances, given the current credit crunch. Trying to get through to the end of the month on tight budgets without having dependency on a payday advance  is crucial for the average British resident.

So, go ahead David Cameron and apologise for your relationship with Andy Coulson and move on for more pertinent challenges facing the country right now. How many politicians can truly say they have not had some kind of involvement with corporations that perhaps they shouldn’t have?

Payday Loans Legislation

July 15th, 2011

Recent payday loans legislation has been condemned by some red tops in the UK. This is the first stage of what will eventually become more rigidly controlled and regulated industry. Here at UK Payday Loans we have no objection to new legislation coming to the fore if it means the industry lending practices are regulated and governed accordingly.

Some comments within their article illustrate both sides of the payday loan debate – so called outrageous annual percentage rate charges vs a lack of an alternative. We would have to agree that whilst the APR of most payday type loans are high, this is calculated annually and therefore does not reflect the actual sum of money needing to be repaid at the end of the month, when a typical loan will need to be paid back.

The APR will run into 4 figures if a loan is paid back over a year and this is never what this kind of loan is used for. The debate will continue to run on and on, but it is important to recognise that payday loans to help people in the short term when they need funding quickly.

Practical Tips for a Fuss-Free Payday Loans Application

June 13th, 2011

Payday loans application is pretty easy and quick. In fact, this type of short term loan is second to none when it comes to speed and convenience in the processing of loan applications. With the right mindset and best practices, a borrower can receive confirmation to his application and get the funds in 24 hours or even less. In fact, the more established lending companies offer same-day processing of payday loans and release of funds.

You can experience a smooth and fuss-free loan application by keeping in mind the following important tips.

`1. It is important that you provide accurate information in your loan application. There are several important things that you have to comply with to qualify for a cash advance. For instance, you must have a reliable source of regular income and a stable job. Suffice it to say, inaccurate information can be grounds for denial of your loan application.

2. You are better off if you get payday loans from the same payday lending company and you must not avail of payday loans if you have an active loan or pending application with another company. Payday loan and cash advance lending companies submit reports of pending and existing payday loans to a national registry, and when a lender finds that you do have an outstanding loan or pending application with another lending company, your application will be denied. This means that you should not apply with several lending companies as such transactions will be reflected in the national registry and you will likely not be able to get approval from any of them.

3. It would also be best that you don’t transact with your lender through cash. Instead, deal with your lender through direct deposit for the receipt of the borrowed funds and post-dated cheque, money order or auto-debit arrangement for the repayment of payday loans. Such transactions will be reflected in your bank statements, and this is your material proof that such transactions between you and your lender have transpired.

4. It is important that you don’t make your final decision unless you have carefully examined and understood the fine print of the payday loans online agreement. If there are issues that need clarification, you must refer them to your lender to make sure that you understand and are aware of all the terms related to the payday loan.

5. Finally, perform a background check on the lending company before you submit your loan request. You have to determine how many years the company has been in this kind of business and if there are any negative issues or complaints that have been filed against the lending company.
