  • How does a consolidation loan actually reduce monthly stress?

    By combining multiple debts into one fixed repayment, a consolidation loan removes the need to juggle several bills, due dates, and interest rates. This often makes budgeting easier and more predictable.

  • Can I consolidate credit cards, overdrafts and other loans together?

    Yes. A consolidation loan can bring together most forms of borrowing — from credit cards and store cards to personal loans and overdrafts — into a single structured plan.

  • Will taking a consolidation loan affect my credit score?

    In the short term, your credit file will show a new loan. Over time, however, making regular repayments on a consolidation loan can help improve your credit history by showing consistent repayment behaviour.

  • What’s the difference between a consolidation loan and a balance transfer card?

    A balance transfer card usually applies only to credit card debt and may come with short-term promotional rates. A consolidation loan lets you combine a wider range of debts into one fixed repayment, often over a longer term.

  • Can I still make extra payments on a consolidation loan?

    Yes. You can make overpayments or clear your loan early, which can reduce the total interest paid and help you become debt-free faster.

  • Can a consolidation loan help me save money overall?

    It can. By moving borrowing from high-interest products like credit cards to a lower-rate consolidation loan, you may reduce the total amount of interest you pay.
