The Lendwise Credit Card Balance Settlement Loan allows you to repay your credit card debt at a lower rate over a suitable period of time depending on your financial affordability. There are no other hidden costs or charges and you can overpay or settle the balance fully at any point without any additional cost, penalty or charge. Lendwise will settle the balance with your credit card provider and set up your Lendwise loan for repayment. The loan application takes approximately five minutes to complete. We aim to respond to you within 2 business days (usually much faster). Our Credit team will review your application to ensure affordability of repayments and will come back through the Lendwise dashboard if there are any questions or something is not clear. We aim to provide applicants who pass our lending criteria within two business days with a provisional loan proposal. Once you have read and accepted your offer you will be asked to provide us with a proof of identification, proof of address, proof of income. We aim to verify those documents within two business days and provide you with a loan agreement. Once you have read and signed that we will schedule the settlement payment to your credit card provider. You have the right to withdraw your application at any stage before signing the loan contract. You also have the right to withdraw from your signed loan agreement within fourteen (14) days of signing it. In such case you will be liable for any amounts disbursed at that point and interest accrued within those days. We will perform a quotation search (known as soft search) when you submit your application. We will also request to review your bank statements through open banking, by connecting the account where your salary / income is paid in. Before signing a loan agreement Lendwise will also perform a credit check (known also as a hard search). Our aim is to ensure that the repayment plan offered to you is affordable and within your means. We will generally decline any applications where the applicant has a history of defaults, arrears, bankruptcies, court orders or similar. We will also decline any applications where the applicant or household show signs of financial stress. You will be required to sign a Direct Debit mandate and each month the scheduled payment will be collected via Direct Debit. The Lendwise Credit Card Balance Settlement Loan can make it simpler to look after what you owe.
