Rate too high. Why not try commercial banks with 24%-60% PA ?

I won't advice anyone to take money from loan apps honestly. The moment you default. They will disgrace you badly. I haven't experienced it first hand because I have never borrowed but this has happened to a relative who got disgraced badly.

We got calls from them threatening to deal with her I believe after her picture was sent to most of her contacts.

If you have someone else that would give you the money that would be more patient with you even if you default it will be better than to get it from loan apps.

It's even bad getting this loans because it just makes you not to concentrate, it disturbs your peace and most times make many business remain stagnant.

You needed advice–I've given you my advice. But I believe before you came here your mind was already made up. The decision is up to you to make.

The internet is too much,you are paying back double of the initial principal of the loan.
Why not go for MFB loan, those ones are cheaper compare to this one.

That's one of their shortcomings, if it isn't urgent,you can look for one and start with the processing.

Alright. Like I said; your mind is made up. Do what you feel is best for you.

Dem no dey telli person. Experience is the best teacher.

When you collect the loan you will either learn how to 2X the growth of your business with it or never ever borrow from loan apps in your life again. The later is likely to happen though.

The interest rate is too high and could strain your finances if you don’t have consistent monthly cash flow to service the loan.

Consider negotiating a 6-month repayment plan for a smaller loan amount to ease the payment burden and reduce the risk of a cash crunch. Alternatively, take a lower loan say ₦300k, and cover the remaining 200k through personal equity.

You got your answer already. The thing is, if you don't meet up, you won't be spared by their mercilessly hammer. They aren't your friends and would treat it as strictly business. Keep this at the back of your mind.

I won't come back here again because you are not paying me for this life saving advice.

There is nothing wrong with taking the loan if you are confident that your business can generate the profit to repay the loan.

The fact is that you are not providing any collateral for this loan therefore the interest will be high because it is considered a high risk loan by the company providing the funds

If you do take the loan you have to make sure you are extremely disciplined and frugal with the money.

The reason why most people find it difficult to repay such loan is because when they get the money the first thing they do is to start flexing or doing giveaways - that is not the purpose for the loan.

You have to look at a loan as a seed which you need to plant and nurture so as to enjoy the yields in future after repaying the loan with part of the early yields.

After receiving the loan you should open a new bank account then after 3 months you pretend you have started repaying the loan by transferring the sum of 120K to this new bank account.

Do not wait until the end of the tenor of the loan before you start running around to put the money together!
