Title: Instalment loans, the benefits
1Instalment Loans, The Benefits
2If a customer is ever exploring different finance
options for themselves, they may look into the
possibility to obtaining an instalment loan. If
doing this a customer will strongly need to take
into consideration how much they need to borrow,
the amounts they have to repay and over what
period and they will also need to explore the
different lender options that are out there.
3An instalment loan is a set amount that is
borrowed and then repaid over a certain time
period in a number of instalments. When at least
two repayments are due on the loan that is when
it can be considered an instalment loan. There
are many instalment loans out there for customers
to consider including car finance, a personal
loan and a Mortgage is another type of instalment
loan. A lot of these particular financial
products have many benefits and now in this
article I am going to explain these in further
details.

5One of the main benefits of an instalment
loan would be flexibility that the customer would
receive when taking out the loan, a customer gets
to select an amount they wish to borrow and then
how long they wish to repay the loan over. When
choosing the payment term a customer should
always look to see what repayments are due to
make sure they pick an amount monthly that will
be taken and one they can afford. Also to take in
consideration would be how long they want to have
this debt showing as outstanding for example, if
they select a payment term over a long period
they must be made aware that this account shows
up on a credit file until the account is settled
in full.
6Also with making more repayments over a longer
repayment term would mean lower amounts but more
overall repayment totals would be due.Repayment
terms are always vitally important for a customer
to choose as they need to make sure repayment is
always affordable yet the repayment term is fair
and they pay a decent amount back in total. Some
shorter term loans do not offer as much
flexibility in the way they lend an amount and
then the customer has to repay that amount in
full plus added interest on their next payday and
if this is not possible then their other
remaining options are very limited.

8Another benefit of most instalment loans would be
the speed in which they can funded. It will be
quite common that most of these loans when
applied for if approved will be in that
customers bank account the same day as when the
application was completed. Some lenders can fund
the required amounts only about thirty minutes
after the loan had been accepted. This will not
always be the case as some companies can go
through third party companies to require the loan
and in these circumstances it can take longer to
acquire the loan.
9f the lender requests documentation from the
lender in order to proceed with any application
further then this can also lead to the loan taken
longer before it gets funded. It would be more
common if the loan being requested was for a high
amount then documentation would most likely be
needed to complete the application fully however
each lender will be different and have
alternative criteria for the customer to meet in
order for any application to get accepted or not.

11With instalment loans it is very common that the
interest with them will be of a much lower rate
than some of the short term loansthis girl uses
www.bfwggrants.org.uk around the market place. I
believe this is because as the repayment term is
over a longer period meaning more total payments
are made the interest rates are lowered. It would
be unfair on the customer if they are making much
more in terms of repayments and borrowing larger
amounts if the interest stayed the same or grew
larger.
12Many things can decide on what interest can be
offered to customers with each application, that
persons credit file can get the interest lowered,
the better the payment history in the passed the
less chance of repayments being missed so
interest can be lowered. It will obviously also
depend on the lender directly and what they have
to charge, at times the interest and charges can
be negotiated on the loan but realistically this
does not happen. If a customer is looking at
submitting the application then they should
compare various sites to make sure they get the
lowered interest rates and they use one of the
better lenders available to them.
