Premier Personal Loan 

Fixed repayment terms

• spread your repayments over 1 to 5 years for Premier Personal Loans of £15,000 and less
• spread your repayments over 1 to 8 years for Premier Personal Loans of over £15,000
• the first repayment is due 1 month from drawdown
• repayments will be taken monthly from your nominated current account

Debt consolidation considerations

• if you're using any part of this loan to pay off or reduce existing loans/debts (including combining these into a single loan), it's important to consider not just the interest rate and monthly repayments, but also the term of this loan compared to the remaining term of your existing loans/debts
• spreading your payments over a longer term means you could end up paying more overall than under your existing arrangements, even if the interest rate on this new loan is less than the rates you're currently paying
• you should also consider if any early repayment charges apply and if this form of borrowing is appropriate for your circumstances

Interest

• at the beginning of the loan we work out the interest you'll pay over the whole period of your loan and add this to your loan balance

Early repayments

• you can repay your loan in full at any time by giving us notice in writing, by visiting a branch or by calling us on 03457 404 404
• once you've given us notice, we'll give you a settlement figure. It's necessary to pay all the amounts owed if you wish to close the loan
• if you make an early repayment there may be a reduction in the amount of interest you'll have to pay and this will be reflected in the settlement figure
• the settlement figure will include interest up to the date which is 28 days after you tell us you want to repay the loan, plus an additional month

Responsible lending
