CWFS does loans, but you have to have a policy with them. http://www.cwfs.co.uk/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;mclovin wrote:Need a couple of grand with a not too huge repayment.
Don't think the union does loans itself, you often get preferential rates advertised in The Voice and such like.
Credit unions are also a decent option

CWFS you have to have held a policy with them for more than 12 months. Typical APR is 12.8%, borrow between £200 and £1500, repaid within 12 months.

This is how I imagine it to be to ask for a loan from the Union itself ( not CWFS )mclovin wrote:Need a couple of grand with a not too huge repayment.
"Yep no bother to you brother.....now first question, are you a member of the Union? You are, excellent....right, ok, are you in good health and likely to be working for the entire length of this loan? Yes? Fantastic, you'll have this loan in no time......well, last question...., what's your grade or job title? OPG? Oh...oh dear, I'm sorry mate, we can't give you a loan, or anyone else on OPG or equivilent grade....only those in SW19 like Billy & Dave - I hope you can negotiate better with the bailiffs better than Dave can with RM"
I don't suppose your mouth bleeds every 28 days, does it?

Re: Do the CWU do cheap loans??
if you speak to them directly and speak to 1 of the main men then they may let you take a loan out earlier than the 12 months you are supposed to have been with them for, i have known this to happen
