FAQ’s – What some of our customers have asked:
Absolutely nothing,
We provide our service as a FREE comparison tool for anyone seeking online loans. Unfortunately, not all customers will be successful, so to charge a fee on the basis of a search with no guarantee would be unethical. However, we do receive a small fee once the loan has been accepted (which is paid by the lender).
We represent a brilliant new formula providing various alternatives for unsecured loans. Whether you have an excellent credit score or a poor one, our unique service could give you instant access to the cash you need. LoanBird uses a lending platform which provides customers access to the vast majority of the UK’s loan lenders.
We Don’t.
There’s no need for us to conduct a credit search at any point throughout our application process. Once you are referred to a lender, it’s at this stage they might need to do a quick credit history check.
Yes, we are.
Bank holidays too! We understand a lot of customers can work different shifts, that’s why we have made our loans available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
APR stands for Annual Percentage Rate.
The present APR shown on our website is just an example; this can vary from lender to lender. This usually depends on the terms and circumstances of the loan you choose. APR takes into account the interest on the loan, along with other potential charges, e.g. arrangement fees. All lenders will tell you their APR rate before you sign any loan agreement.
Yes,
Most lenders on our panel can look at offering this facility. If you want to know more about poor credit loans, we have a section of information on this topic.
Once you have accepted one of our loans we always aim to send the funds over on the same day. We are proud to say our lender’s average transfer time is around 10 minutes.

Lending amounts from £100 – £15,000 with the choice to borrow up to 5 years.
Please see our page on guarantor loans to give you a full explanation on how they work.
You can always pay your loan off early if you want. Bear in mind that lenders usually look to charge early repayment fees. Please contact your lender if you have further questions or want to do this.
First and foremost,
You should contact your lender immediately to explain your circumstances so they can assess the situation to hopefully offer assistance. If you have any financial problems and debts are becoming unmanageable, you can receive free advice from various organisations like:

We operate with an open door policy, so please ask away!
