How to get money fast
When you’re short of cash in an emergency situation, speed is everything. We’ve all been in situations that require fast cash and when your current account is empty, panic can set in.
An alternative to Sunny Loans
Sunny Loans are one of the many direct payday lending companies that have fallen into administration over recent months and years. If you are looking for loans like Sunny Loans, we can help. Although Sunny Loans are no longer offering new loans to borrowers in the UK looking for short-term loans, Moneyboat are still very much up and running, offering great funding options to people seeking emergency cash.
How much can I borrow with a personal loan?
When it comes to borrowing money, how much you want to take out in the form of a personal loan, how much you should apply for and how much you can actually borrow are often quite different amounts.
How much does a loan cost?
It might seem like an obvious question, but it’s amazing how many people fail to actually consider the cost of a loan before taking one out. And we don’t mean the amount you will need to repay each month, but the actual cost, to you, as the borrower, in addition to the repayments.
What are interest-free loans?
If you’re in the market for a short-term loan, you probably know that borrowing money doesn’t come for free. Lenders have to make some money from the practice of lending. This often comes in the form of interest charges that are applied, usually as a percentage of the outstanding loan amount.
Do credit repair services really work?

Do you need a guarantor?
If you’re struggling to be accepted for a loan because you have a poor credit record, you may want to consider a guarantor loan. These are loans that you take out with the help of a close family member or friend who is willing to repay the loan if you are unable to do so for any reason.
