Secured
loans for residents of Burton upon Trent from
Great British Finance |
A
secured loan ties the loan into your property, which
gives the lender more security. This may enable them
to loan more or to reduce the rates they can offer,
though you will need to make sure you can re-pay the
loan as your property may be at risk if you cannot repay
the amount you borrow. A secured loan may be a good
way of reducing your outgoings by consolidating more
expensive borrowing, such as credit cards or store cards.
You may also be able to raise more money than if you
take out an unsecured loan.
An unsecured loan does not use your home or vehicle
as collateral for the loan. An unsecured loan is best
suited for people who do not own a property, such as
council tenants or private renters although they are
available to homeowners as well. You will almost certainly
need proof of your income and you may not be able to
borrow as much as you could if you secured the loan
against your property. Even if you
have problems with your credit history, you will still
be able to arrange an unsecured loan with Financiar.
What if I have a bad credit history, will this
affect my loan application and what type of loan I can

DETAILED
INFORMATION ABOUT OUR UK SECURED LOANS
The loan agreement
When you enter into a Secured loan or Unsecured loan
agreement – you are signing a contract to make
the repayments, by the specified date every month
for the length of the loan agreement. Any deviation
from this agreement may result in monetary penalties.
For example, some loan lenders apply an early settlement
charge (also known as a redemption penalty) if you
repay either the secured loan or unsecured loan in
full before the agreed end date. This can be up to
2 months interest. If you think you will be able to
pay off the loan before the end of the term then your
best bet will be to arrange a secured loan or unsecured
loan with no early settlement costs, however the APR
may be slightly higher.
Flexibility within the loan agreement
If you would like some flexibility in your loan agreement,
make sure you arrange this before you sign on the
dotted line. You may be able to arrange occasional
over-payments and lump-sum payments, both of which
allow you to clear the debt over a shorter time period
than first agreed. If your secured loan or unsecured
loan is a truly flexible product then you may also
be able to use the fund as a bank account, withdrawing
funds from the account on a rolling basis, providing
you stay within your credit limit. Lenders also offer
repayment holidays, allowing you to defer your monthly
cheap loan repayments either at the start of the loan
(known as 'deferred repayment') or at an agreed point
during the term.
Interest on the loan
You are charged interest on the amount you have borrowed
with the loan – it is a percentage of the borrowed
amount which accumulates over the period of the agreement.
Interest rates on loans vary from 7% up to 20%. The
interest rate will be included in the APR. This stands
for Annual Percentage Rate, and includes the administration
cost of setting up the mortgage, any discount periods,
how often interest is calculated and also calculates
what the average rate of interest will be over the
life of the loan. To comply with the consumer credit
act all lenders must ensure that the borrower is informed
of the APR (the annual percentage rate on the loan).
Fixed or variable interest Loans
The APR can be a fixed or variable charge. A fixed
APR has the benefit of added security since the rate
will not change, a variable APR does not have this
security but could reduce the cost of your total payments
if interest rates go down.
HINTS
AND TIPS WHEN TAKING OUT A LOAN IN THE UK
Look at the small print - although the loan with the
lowest APR is one factor that contributes to a cheap
loan, you should always pay attention to the small print
as any additional costs will be found there. If at any
stage you need further information about your UK unsecured
loan or secured loan application then talk to our advisers,
remember once you submit
your loan application you still have a 'cooling off
period' which enables you to cancel your secured loan
or unsecured loan application.
Never borrow more on a loan than you need - you will
only pay more back in interest - the more you borrow
on a loan the more it costs you.
Only ever make one loan application at a time –
even if you don’t take the offer up all the loan
applications will sit on your credit record, and will
not look favorable for future finance applications.
Consider loan insurance and protection – if you
lose your job, have an accident or become sick, you
will still have to make your repayments in full so it’s
a good idea to take out loan insurance, especially if
the loan is secured on your home (A secured loan). We
offer a huge range of income protection products, if
you would like more information on how to protect your
loan then click here
Stay in control - make sure you know exactly what the
monthly loan payments will be, and how much you will
pay back in total.
Everyone’s different - lenders calculate the total
cost of a cheap uk loan (APR- both for secured loans
and unsecured loans) in different ways, so try and get
some understanding of the formulas they use.
Compare like for like – the low monthly interest
rates for loans in shop windows may look lower than
the yearly APR in another, but the only way to find
out is to carry out full calculations for both offers.
Check out the alternatives - you may be able to get
a better deal on a home improvement loan by going to
your mortgage lender rather than taking out a secured
loans or even an unsecured loan.

About Burton upon Trent
Burton-upon-Trent also known as Burton-on-Trent,
or simply Burton, is a large town straddling the River
Trent in the east of Staffordshire, England, which originally
grew up around the monastery of St. Modwin. The town has
a population of 60,500 (2001 estimate). It is the administrative
centre for the East Staffordshire district. For centuries,
Burton has been associated with the brewing industry due
to the quality of the local water. This comes from the
high proportion of dissolved salts in the water, predominantly
caused by the gypsum in the surrounding hills. Much of
the open land within and around the town is protected
from chemical treatment to help preserve this water quality.
The town is still home to five brewers: Coors, a brewery
from the USA which produces Carling. Coors also brew Bass
beer under licence from Interbrew
Marston's, now owned by Wolverhampton & Dudley Breweries
PLC Burton Bridge Brewery, a local company and two new
smaller outfits A by-product of the brewing industry,
figuratively and literally, is the presence of the Marmite
factory in the town. This in turn generated the production
of Bovril. Together with the breweries this can give the
area a distinctive smell. The development of rail links
to Liverpool enabled brewers to export their beer throughout
the British Empire. The accidental shipwreck of a cargo
boat carrying India Pale Ale (an ale specially brewed
to keep during the long sea voyage to India) resulted
in barrels being washed ashore. The popularity of these
fortuitous samples resulted in the domestic marketing
of such ale, and began the gradual transformation of English
drinking tastes. Previously, Englishmen had drunk mainly
stout and porter - dark beers flavoured with roasted barley
and similar to Guinness - but bitter (a development of
pale ale) came to predominate. This extensively hopped,
lighter beer was easier to store and transport, and so
favoured the growth of larger breweries. Burton came to
dominate this trade, and at its height one quarter of
all beer sold in Britain was produced here. Although over
30 breweries are recorded in 1880, a process of mergers
and buy-outs resulted in three main breweries remaining
by 1980: Bass, Ind Coopes and Marstons. Today (2004) only
Burton Bridge brewery remains as an independent brewer.
The fame of Burton ales gave rise to the English euphemism
"gone for a burton" meaning to die - a World
War II humorous suggestion that a missing comrade had
merely nipped out for a beer. The town has a non-league
association football club, Burton Albion. The Burton &
District Cricket League has many notable clubs, which
include among others Lichfield Cricket Club The Burton
Operatic Society has been in existence since 1951 and
is still flourishing. The Burton suburb of Branston is
where the well-known Branston Pickle was invented and
also has a golf course. Claymills pumping station on the
north side of Burton is a restored Victorian sewage pumping
station, adjacent to the modern sewage works. The town
lies within the National Forest.
