Instant loans - ideal for money in a hurry


Monday, August 31st, 2009

Unexpected expenses like a burst water pipe or a new boiler are no respecters of careful financial planning. We all face times when our salary simply will not take us from one end of the month to the other.

If you find yourself in this tricky situation, instant loans can be a real lifeline. Instant loans can tide you over until you next get paid. And, especially if you have unforeseen bills which need paying in a hurry, instant loans live up to their name by being in your bank account almost immediately.

Of course, you shouldn’t rely on instant loans for help every month, and even most providers of instant loans would discourage you from doing so. And they’re meant to be repaid quickly. But if you want a quick solution to urgent money problems, instant loans really can be the answer.

At 24/7 Moneybox, we can get you a cash advance of up to £800 - or between £80 and £200 the first time you take out one of our loans.
It doesn’t necessarily matter if you have bad credit - we take recent circumstances into account.

Remember, our instant loans are also designed to be paid back quickly - within a month. We can take back repayment directly from your bank account, so that’s quick and easy as well.

Payday loans - responsible choices


Friday, August 28th, 2009

Everyone is feeling the financial pinch of the recession at the moment and this makes them inclined to take loans in order to afford a certain standard of living. However, pay day loans are not for maintaining a life in the lap of luxury when you cannot afford it.

Pay day loans are for serious emergencies that happen when you are out of cash. No, a fashion emergency does not qualify as serious enough to warrant a payday loan. However, when disaster does strike and you need cash, you can come to us for both information on, and help in, taking out pay day loans.

Your money - your responsibility

Payday loans are not to be paid off over time; they are to be paid off as soon as your next pay day comes around. This means that you have even less money to work with the month after taking out a payday loan than you did in that month. These loans have serious and far-reaching effects on your finances and need to be considered carefully.

You literally need to dissect your reasoning for taking out payday loans before you commit to taking out. Payday loans are only for those real emergencies, like your car breaking down in the middle of the month when you don’t have the cash to fix it. That type of emergency impacts your life seriously enough to warrant a loan.

However, if you can get along just fine by using public transport till your next payday, don’t take out a loan. Be super responsible when taking out payday loans, finances are already unhappy in the UK and you do not want to take any unnecessary risks that might put your own finances in jeopardy.

Repayment rates for payday loans explained


Wednesday, August 26th, 2009

Payday loans in the UK are one of the quickest and easiest ways of borrowing money if you need help between pay cheques, but what do they cost to pay back?

Annual interest rates, or APR, are the most usual way of expressing charges on money repaid over 12 months or more. Because payday loans in the UK are paid back over no more than a month, APR can seem confusing. For example, a payday loan of £1,000 taken out for one month would typically have an actual interest rate of 25%.

At 24/7 Moneybox, leading providers of payday loans in the UK, we’re upfront about our charges. We publicise an APR for our loans, as we’re legally obliged to do so, but the best way to look at it is to understand that we charge £25 for every £100 you borrow.

While this may seem steep, the great thing about our payday loans in the UK is that they take next to no time to arrive in your bank account. It’s all sorted out online in just a few minutes with a few quick, simple questions.

And, of course, once you compare the costs of charges incurred on unarranged overdrafts or direct debits made with insufficient funds or cash withdrawals made on credit cards to realise that payday loans in the UK are a good value alternative.

Monday, August 24th, 2009

The popularity of payday loans in the UK has soared. But, if you’re unsure as to how payday loans UK can help - and how they can’t - read on!

Essentially, payday loans in the UK are intended as an emergency way of getting urgently-needed, short-term funds quickly. The aim is that they should also be repaid swiftly.

What payday loans in the UK are not, however, is a permanent source of credit, or a second salary. And they are not generally for huge sums - usually payday loans UK are for amounts under £1,000.

At 24/7 Moneybox, we are highly reputable providers of payday loans in the UK, and we’re keen on responsible lending. If you need money until payday, perhaps because of some unforeseen expense, one of our payday loans UK of up to £800 could be perfect for you.

But if you need longer than a month to repay the loan, do not have a regular income or a UK bank account, or need more than one loan at any one time, a payday loan may not be the best solution for you.



Managing your pay day loans


Friday, August 21st, 2009

Pay day loans are increasingly popular as a way of getting hold of urgently needed funds which are quickly repaid. If you face unexpected expenses between pay cheques and need a helping hand to keep you going, pay day loans can be the perfect answer.

But, as with any form of borrowing, pay day loans need to be managed sensibly. Take out your pay day loans with a reputable company, never borrow more than you can sensibly afford to repay and budget the repayment, including interest, from next month’s salary, so that you don’t have to borrow again.

And always bear in mind that pay day loans should not be looked on as a second income. Responsible companies will not encourage financial dependency on pay day loans. Anyone struggling to repay pay day loans should talk to their loan company. A reputable company will listen and do what they can to help.

Swine flu peaks for the summer, but re-emergence will prove difficult to predict


Thursday, August 20th, 2009

Despite large numbers still seeking treatment for swine flu, only one in ten people actually have had swine flu, reports Times online. The Chief Medical Officer, Sir Liam Donaldson, stated that we have seen the peak of swine flu for this summer; however, there will be great difficulty in estimating when the next bout of the virus will hit the country again.

We have seen the latest wave of the illness subside as overall diagnosis and hospitalisations due to the virus have decreased, from 25,000 counted last week to 11,000 so far this week. Fortunately the predictions by top medical officers aren’t looking likely to come to fruition, based on a the best scientific evidence simulating the worse case scenario it was predicted that 100,000 new cases could be diagnosed by the end of a April. This is not likely to be the case but cases will re-emerge intensely when schools re-open in September and October.

Donaldson reassures the public that the greatest care and respect is being taking with the virus, ‘we have always said that it is better to hope for the best, but plan for the worst’. There are still 263 patients who are being treated in hospitals, with 30 in intensive care. He hopes that the illness will follow the pattern of a similar virus in 1968-70, which peaked in Christmas, if it does then there will be plenty of time to vaccinate as many people as possible and even avoid a peak, he said.

Donaldson states that schools could face closure if the virus develops in certain areas, however, he does not believe that a national policy will have much effect. So far there has been 54 deaths, the majority of which have been down to pre-existing medical conditions, the Government has announced a list of the priority groups for vaccines, which include people with asthma and diabetes.

Are you worried about needing cash to cover unexpected costs? Well then you should be seriously consider taking out a payday loan. Fill in one of our application forms, which usually only take 5 minutes and you’ll be one step closer to get the cash you need this month.



Off-peak and advance fares could see sharp rises


Wednesday, August 19th, 2009

Following the Government confirming that regulated fares like season tickets for consumers would fall last January, travel watchdogs have warned that train operators will try and regain their loses through other measures, reports Times Online. These other measures to recoup their revenue,  so called ‘stealth charges’, include  increasing the cost of parking and advanced fares.

These warnings have shown substance following the First Great Western train company announcing rises of up to 20% on some off-peak services. Regulators do not monitor these off-peak services so there are no limits as to how high fares can be raised.

The fare reductions for regulated fares have been hailed as the first ‘in a generation’, which will encourage more to use train travel and avoid the other environmentally damaging means of transport like cars. Some companies have been allowed to increase prices, West Yorkshire PTE will increase fares to enable investment in additional trains. Boris Johnson, Mayor of London, has been put under pressure from request for more funding to British transport to cover the ‘black hole’ of investment there, this will make it difficult for Johnson to freeze fares for Underground and bus networks which he controls. Boris promised in December that a ‘reduction (in RPI) will, of course, be fully reflected in the fare package’ it’s a proposal that will come under a lot of strain.

Are you finding that expenses are getting too much for you each month? Are bills going unpaid and threaten to increase through penalty charges and late fees? Well then this sounds like you need a little injection of cash to deal with those steep payments you are facing at the moment. Here at 24/7 Moneybox we can offer you the chance to cover your costs with one of our payday loans. We can offer you a competitive loan, which provides instant cash and next to no hassle from paperwork or faxing. So apply today!



Exploding myths about payday loans


Wednesday, August 19th, 2009

Recent months have seen a boom in applications for payday loans in the UK. But there have also been some myths going around, which are not based on fact.

One such unfounded myth is that providers of payday loans are not reputable organisations. Another is that, if you have bad credit, you don’t stand a chance of qualifying for payday loans. Yet another is that you don’t need a bank account to be eligible for payday loans. The final myth is that you need to have a house or other collateral to qualify for payday loans.

Flintoff v Lee: showdown at the Oval?


Tuesday, August 18th, 2009

With the final Ashes test coming up this week we thought we might have a look at the build up to the match.  So far the big stories surround the two talismanic test figures of Andrew Flintoff and Brett Lee, whether injury will allow them to do battle again in the final test at the Oval. England’s Flintoff and Australia’s Lee made up the iconic image of the 2005 Ashes series, with Flintoff providing a consoling hug in the middle of the wicket. Flintoff missed the last test at Headingly while Lee has yet to play in the series so far.

Both bowlers are eager about playing, Flintoff, barring any late injuries should play, however, Lee will have to work hard to convincing selectors that he will still be dangerous despite lacking practice or any real playing time. Already Tim Nielson has highlighted his ability to reverse swing as an asset, which is enough to seriously consider him for the test team. Lee took 3 wickets against the England Lions at Canterbury on Sunday in their last warm up game.

Comment has also circulated about the pitch, in particular over the reputation of the Oval being a batsman’s paradise, and therefore not one to encourage win or lose results, so in a series where despite being 1-1 the Australians will regain the Ashes if the series remains a tie this has obviously attracted a lot of opinion. The Oval groundstaff have assured that they have not received any requests by the ECB to produce a ‘results pitch’ and actually point out that seven of the past ten tests have ended in a win, five in the favour of England.
