FAQs
Still have questions about our auto repair loans? These are the answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.
Can I get a car repair loan with bad credit?
We will look at things other than just your credit history. We also look at your bank statements before making a decision on whether we believe a personal loan is the right thing for you. If you have bad credit, but your relationship with money has improved, we may still be able to provide you with a loan option to suit your needs.
Do I have to secure my loan with my vehicle?
This will depend on how much you are borrowing. We offer unsecured loans from $2,100 to $2,000. If you are borrowing within this range, you will not need to offer your vehicle as collateral. However, if you wish to borrow more than $2,000, you may be required to attach an asset of value as security.
Why do you need my bank statements?
We use third-party encryption to look at your bank statements so that we can assess your income and spendings. We use a bank statement service to assess your current financial situation as a whole before deciding whether a personal loan is right for you.
Will you pay the mechanic directly?
No, we will pay you directly. We will deposit the money straight into your bank account. You will need to transfer funds to your mechanic yourself to pay for your car repairs.
