+Is 247Moneybox.com a lender or a broker?
247Moneybox.com is a lender. Our loans provide a solution for your occasional short-term cash needs. They are not suitable for supporting borrowing over longer periods. If longer-term solutions are required, there are other more suitable forms of finance available elsewhere.
If we are unable to approve your loan application we may be able to find a third-party lender who can help. These lenders may undertake credit reference/fraud prevention agency data searches against you to make lending decisions and for the prevention of fraud and money laundering.

If debt becomes a worry there are independent organisations you can ask for advice. Visit www.nationaldebtline.co.uk or www.cccs.co.uk.

Please see also the Good Practice Customer Charter

+What personal information do you need?
We require details such as your name, address, phone numbers, date of birth, income, bank account and debit card details. We take fraud very seriously and need to be sure that you are who you say you are. For full details see our privacy policy.
+What are the requirements for a loan?
You can apply for a loan if you are aged 18+, live in the UK and are employed with a regular income. You also need to have a UK bank account with a valid linked debit card (pre-paid cards are not permitted).
+Do I need to be over 18 years old?
Yes.
+Do I need to be in employment?
Yes. Part-time is fine, however we are unable to accept self-employed applicants.
+Do I need a bank account?
Yes, a UK bank account with a linked debit card.
+Do I need to be a homeowner?
No, we accept applications from tenants.
+Do I need to give a reason for my application?
No, as long as you remember that our loans are only suitable for short-term borrowing needs. If longer-term solutions are required, there are other more suitable forms of finance available elsewhere.
+Do I need to have perfect credit?
Bad or poor credit will not necessarily prevent you from receiving a loan, providing we are satisfied you can repay the loan without causing any financial difficulty. We look at each application based on recent circumstances.
+Do you carry out credit checks?
Yes, as a responsible lender we carry out a credit check.
+I only have a credit card; can I apply?
No, we do not accept credit cards as a form of payment. We only accept debit cards.
+My partner has a loan; can I get one too?
No, we only allow one loan per household at any one time.
+What happens if you do not approve my application?
If we are unable to approve your loan application we may be able to find a third-party lender who can help. These lenders may undertake credit reference/fraud prevention agency data searches against you to make lending decisions and for the prevention of fraud and money laundering.
+What are your charges?
Our fee structure is straightforward and set out below. We have a £20 Fast Transfer Fee to cover the cost of our 1 hour funding system or, if you are happy to wait 3-4 banking days, there is no charge. In order to validate your debit card we also collect 12p from all applicants' cards at the time of application. The 12p is non-refundable even if your application is unsuccessful. Interest is charged by the day at 1.2% of the amount borrowed and transfer fee (if applicable). Loans are available from £80 to £800. As an example, to borrow £100 for 28 days without opting for Fast Transfer, would cost £133.76.
Representative Example
| Total amount of credit |
£200.00 | |
| Debit card validation fee | £0.12 | |
| Duration of agreement | 28 days | |
| Rate of interest (also charged on transfer fee) | 438% per annum fixed | |

+How do I receive my loan?
Your loan is paid directly into your bank account and is then available for you to withdraw at your convenience.
+How much can I borrow?
We are committed to responsible lending. You can request between £80 and £200 the first time you apply for a loan. If you use the service responsibly we may give you the flexibility to apply for more cash in the future, should you need it, up to a maximum of £800.
+How long does an application take?
It takes about 5 minutes to complete the application form - all online.
+Can I apply over the phone?
No , applications need to be submitted online.
+Can I have two loans at the same time?
We lend responsibly and this means that all prior loans have to be repaid before another can be offered, in order to ensure you can easily repay what you borrow.
+I previously received and repaid a loan; why have I been declined this time?
We assess every application on an individual basis and use a variety of information to help us reach a responsible lending decision. Repayment of a previous loan does not guarantee you will be able to borrow again or receive a larger loan.
We review all accounts periodically and so if we decline your application it may not necessarily mean we can't help you in the future.
Our customer service agents are not able to see information regarding lending decisions.
+Why are you offering to lend me less than last time I borrowed?
We want to ensure that you can afford to repay our loans comfortably and so we take into account a number of factors when deciding if and how much to lend. It does not necessarily follow that successful repayment of a previous loan will increase the amount you can borrow in the future.
Our customer service agents are not able to see information regarding lending decisions including the loan amount offered.
+I have received an email / text asking me to click a link to complete my application - what do I do?
If you have received an email or SMS to complete your application it means we have been passed your details by a third party who told us you are looking for a short-term loan.
Simply click the link and follow the instructions to finish your application by inputting your debit card details. If you have any problems get in contact with us.
+There is an error validating my address; what do I do?
Please type your address carefully, ensuring that only the house name or number appears in the first box. If you are unsure as to how to format your address correctly, you should check using the Royal Mail address finder service here.
+There is an error validating my debit card; what do I do?
You may be facing issues with card validation for one or both of the following reasons:
• You need to have some cash in your account (this can be as little as £1).
• Your card may not be registered to the address given on your application. This may be because it is registered to an alternative or previous address, or simply due to the format you have used to input the address.
If neither of the above apply call your bank to see if there is an issue with your card – perhaps it's a new card and hasn't been activated? Or perhaps you have changed address and the bank hasn't updated their records?
+There is an error with my pay dates; what do I do?
Your pay dates are checked for accuracy against our database as we hold the pay date frequencies of many companies. Check that the pay dates you have entered match the 'Frequency of Wage' you have selected.
You do not need to adjust your pay dates for weekends or public holidays as the system will account for these. If you have selected 'Specific Date' as your payment frequency, please make sure that the day of the month is the same in the next and following pay dates you enter.
+I cannot login to my account online; why does it say my email is not recognised?
An account is only created when an application has been approved and the funds have been sent. Once you have received your loan you can login at any time by clicking the "My Account" tab at the top of the homepage. Your username is your email address. There is a facility to reset your password if you can't remember it.
+If an application is referred, how long until I hear if I'm approved?
We assess every application on an individual basis and never guarantee acceptance.
As part of our checks we may place a very discreet call to your employer to check your employment. We never disclose the purpose of our call and only ask to speak to you. Our identity when calling is 247. Confidentiality is of the utmost importance to us. Please ensure you have provided valid and correct work contact details. If you need to update these please email: customer.services@247moneybox.com.
+I have signed the loan agreement as part of the application process; why do I have to sign again?
Sometimes it is necessary to amend your loan agreement during the processing stage and as such it is important that you read and sign off on the new details. This can occur, for example, if your pay dates are found to be different and we need to change the repayment date of your loan.
To re-sign your loan agreement, either click the link in the email or SMS we sent you. If you have any problems get in contact with us.
+What happens if 247Moneybox.com are unable to approve my loan application?
If we are unable to approve your loan application we may be able to find a third-party lender who can help. These lenders may undertake credit reference/fraud prevention agency data searches against you to make lending decisions and for the prevention of fraud and money laundering.

Repaying my loan
+How do I repay my loan?
It's simple; the repayment amount is deducted from your debit card automatically on your next payday. Please ensure the required funds are available in your bank account (the one linked to your debit card) in time for the repayment date.
+You have requested a payment from my bank that I don't recognise?
If you haven’t repaid your loan in full on your contractual repayment date we may attempt collection of the outstanding amount so as not to keep your account in default. We expressly inform you that we may do this in clause 11 of the Loan Contract and also notify you by text message before any attempts:
"If we are unsuccessful in collecting any payment from the primary debit card you have registered with us, we may seek payment from any further debit card which you have provided the details of for the purpose of repayment. We may attempt to take payment on multiple occasions on the repayment date and in different denominations until the full amount of the payment due has been collected.
"If we are unable to take the entire amount of the repayment that is owed on the repayment date, we may try again to take the payment after the repayment date. We may make several attempts to take payment and/or in different denominations on these dates. Before we take a payment on a day other than the repayment date, we will notify you by text message that your payment has failed (unless you have requested not to receive such notifications) and that we will continue to seek payment of the amount of the payment or a lesser amount on the date specified."
+What happens if you are not able to collect repayment from my primary debit card?
We attempt to debit your primary debit card in the first instance. if this is unsuccessful we may attempt collection from any other debit cards that you have registered with us so as to avoid your account falling into default. We expressly inform you that we may do this in clause 11 of the Loan Contract:
"If we are unsuccessful in collecting any payment from the primary debit card you have registered with us, we may seek payment from any further debit card which you have provided the details of for the purpose of repayment. We may attempt to take payment on multiple occasions on the repayment date and in different denominations until the full amount of the payment due has been collected.
"If we are unable to take the entire amount of the repayment that is owed on the repayment date, we may try again to take the payment after the repayment date. We may make several attempts to take payment and/or in different denominations on these dates. Before we take a payment on a day other than the repayment date, we will notify you by text message that your payment has failed (unless you have requested not to receive such notifications) and that we will continue to seek payment of the amount of the payment or a lesser amount on the date specified."
+I'm waiting for a new debit card to arrive; what do I do?
If your repayment date is still a few days away then you can update this in your online account and set your new card as the primary card. If the repayment date has arrived and you still do not have your new card, or can't use an alternative, then you need to make a payment directly into 247Moneybox.com's account asap to avoid fees and charges. Our bank details are:
Sort code: 20-36-47
Account no: 03018024
Use your postcode and second name as a reference and then send an email to customer.services@247moneybox.com.
+How do I update my debit card details?
You can update your debit card details by logging in to your online account. Remember all of your details are encrypted over a secure SSL connection.
+I have made an online transfer to repay the loan; how long will this take to be processed?
Bank transfers can take up to 3 working days to show in our account. Once we have received the funds we will process and allocate them to your account as quickly as possible. If your balance has not changed after a further 2 working days please contact us. It may be the case that we require further information to locate your payment.
+Can I repay my loan using a credit card?
No, you must repay your loan using a debit card.
Problems repaying
+What happens if you can't collect the repayment?
It's important that you fully consider whether you can repay a loan comfortably. If you feel repayment might be an issue, please do not consider a 247Moneybox.com loan. If we can't collect payment from your debit card on your repayment day, the following fees will apply:
• Failed collection fee: £20 on day 1
• Interest will continue to accrue on a daily basis
• Up to 5 letters are sent, each charged at £10 (first letter sent is free)
We may also charge you the following fees if you breach your agreement:
• A debt collection agency fee of £45
• Costs and expenses in enforcing or attempting to enforce our rights
• Costs and expenses of tracing you if you move address without telling us
This means that the total cost of your debt will grow and become more expensive to repay.
Continued failure to repay a loan will lead to Credit Reference Agencies being notified and potential legal action being taken, both of which could impair your credit rating and make it difficult or expensive to obtain credit in the future.
If debt becomes a worry there are independent organisations you can ask for advice. Visit www.nationaldebtline.co.uk or www.cccs.co.uk for advice.
+My circumstances have changed and I'm having problems repaying what should I do?
Things can go wrong. We know life can sometimes be complicated and that unexpected things can happen. If this is the case, you must let us know as soon as possible and we will do our best to help. We are a friendly bunch, so don’t be apprehensive about calling.
We strongly recommend you pay off as much of your loan as you can. This can be done at any time in your online account or by speaking to our friendly collections team on 020 7183 8078. In addition please see this default information sheet produced by the OFT.
+I am thinking of entering a debt management plan, what should I do?
We appreciate that managing your debt is not easy and some turn to third parties to do this for them. It is worth bearing in mind that firms that charge a fee to administer a plan on your behalf reduce the available funds to pay your debts. One solution could be to talk to your creditors directly and arrange a mutually agreeable payment plan with them, saving you money in the long run. Give us a call on 020 7183 8078 – we can help you.
If you want to use a debt management firm, please ask them to send correspondence to customer.services@247moneybox.com with the subject line "Debt Management". Corresponding by post can take longer.
We may ask to see a breakdown of your income and expenditure as well as documentary evidence of your claims. You have 38 days to collect the relevant information once we have been officially told that you are entering a debt management plan.
+I have been declared bankrupt and have entered an IVA/DRO etc… what can I do?
You will need to get the official administering body to send us the relevant documentation.
+Do you report to Credit Reference Agencies?
Yes, that's why it's very important to keep your side of the agreement to pay back the loan on the correct date. Other lenders use Credit Reference Agencies when they make lending decisions, so defaulting on your loan with us may make it harder or more expensive to obtain credit in the future.
+Do you use third parties to collect debt?
Yes, we use reputable and professional third parties to collect any outstanding debts that are owed to us. However, this is very much a last resort when we haven't been able to agree a repayment plan. If an account is passed over to a third party this fact is recorded on your credit report.
+What is a settlement offer?
Occasionally we may offer you the ability to settle your overdue loan with a one-off payment. This may be at a discount to your outstanding balance. A settlement offer is a one-off time limited offer - i.e. the offer will expire and may not be offered again.
Extensions
+Can I extend my loan?
We usually require full repayment of your loan on your next pay date, however it may be possible to request an extension of your loan to your following pay date. Please bear in mind that a loan from 247Moneybox.com is not suitable for long-term borrowing and extending your loan will always cost you more. If you require a longer-term solution there are other more suitable forms of finance available elsewhere. To extend your loan requires you to make a part loan repayment and pay any interest charged on your loan along with a £10 extension fee on the date your loan is due for repayment. Interest will continue to accrue on your outstanding loan at the same previous rate until your following pay date.
If debt becomes a worry there are independent organisations you can ask for advice. Visit www.nationaldebtline.co.uk or www.cccs.co.uk for advice.
+I have used my maximum extensions, can I extend my loan one more time?
Although it might appeal as a short-term solution, we limit the number of times you can extend your loan for everyone's benefit. We want you to be able to manage your debt comfortably.

Yes, you can make part payments towards your loan at any time by logging in to your online account.
