Consolidation Loan

A consolidation loan is a form of credit taken to consolidate all your debts into one manageable payment each month. 

Advantages & Disadvantages of a Consolidation Loan

Advantages

  • All your debts are in one place with the same provider
  • It makes the repayments easier to manage

Disadvantages

  • Depending on your current credit status a consolidation loan may have a relatively high interest rate
  • You may not be accepted for a consolidation loan if your credit rating has been negatively affected
  • You may get into further debt once the interest on the loan is added to the overall balance or if you’re unable to borrow as much as you currently owe.
