I applied for a personal loan to consolidate all of my debt into one payment just to see what could happen, has anyone had any experience with this company, how they approve people and what the service is like? Thanks in advance!
1. I have no experience with the company; never before heard of it.
2. I don't think you'll be doing yourself any favors by getting such a loan.
(a) consumer finance companies are discriminated against in FICO algorithms
(b) having a new installment loan with 100% utilization will hurt your scores
(c) the terms of the loan are probably predatory, you'd be better off trying to do it through a credit union
3. My advice would be, rather than borrow from Peter to pay Paul, just pay your debts down gradually.
