On secured loans from Debtbuster Loans there are no up-front fees whatsoever. The same can be said for our sister company Loans4Tenants. On some secured loans a fee may apply.

Can I fix my monthly repayments?

Many people want the certainty that comes with knowing exactly what their monthly commitment will be during the repayment period. Whether you prefer a secured loan where the rate changes in line with the general level of interest rates or one where you can fix your monthly payments for an initial period of the loan, Debtbuster Loans will help you to find a secured loan that is right for you.

How long does it take to get a decision?

If you apply now, we could call you back in minutes. We will give you a decision, in principle, straight away and could send out your secured loan documentation today. You'll be under no obligation, and no salesman will call. The final approval of your secured loan rests with your lender. We are confident that as long as the information you provide is accurate, the secured loan will be completed on the original terms discussed. However, until the secured loan is finally approved you should not enter into any agreements on the assumption that the secured loan will be completed.

Dear Sufiea

This email is to thank you for your hard work in helping me obtain my loan. I know my circumstances are unusual and gave rise to a few headaches.

Your efforts have meant we are able to finish building our family home and to do so far more cheaply than by remortgaging.

At all times you kept us updated, working hard on our behalf, always being very polite and being helpful despite the problems this case presented.

Your standard of customer service has been excellent judged even by the highest standards. Hoping you continue to do well and in doing so earn well, as you deserve.

Best wishes for the future
Mr & Mrs B

You're in good company

Hi Graham

Just a note to thank you very much for your hard work and persistent effort in ensuring my loan went through on time.

The cheque arrived this morning and now my building work can commence! I wouldn't hesitate in recommending your services to any of my friends as I found you to be very professional and considerate to my needs and the unexpected pressure we found ourselves under.

Once again thank you very much and make sure your bosses see this email as you deserve some praise from them.

Regards
Maggie, Ayrshire
