Remember that the quicker you repay the loan the lower the total cost of the interest although each repayment will be higher (see example in FAQs below). If you don’t like the total cost of the loan then shorten your repayment period, but make sure you can afford the monthly repayments.

After you apply you will be given a decision in principle (including an assessment of affordability). You may be contacted by a member of the Pounds to Pocket customer service team if they need to manually assess your application. Once approved the loan is paid to your bank account. If you are approved and your bank supports “Faster Payments” then it is possible to receive your loan within 10 minutes.

  1. Debit card – payments taken automatically on the agreed date using a continuous payment authority (CPA)
  2. Direct debit authorisation – regularly scheduled payments are automatically taken from your account on your due date.

In either case you must have sufficient funds in your account on the due date otherwise you risk causing yourself financial problems.

Can I change my instalment payments or pay off my loan early?

Yes. And this will reduce your interest costs. There is no fee for doing this. You would need to get in touch with the Pounds to Pocket customer service team to organise this.
