Declined Notice

We have declined your loan application because you have a lot of debt
Unfortunately, we cannot lend to everyone and the information on your credit report tells us that you have accumulated a lot of debt and it would not be responsible for us to offer you a loan.

As a credit union, we want to protect our members from further borrowing that would increase unmanageable debt and add to their financial problems. That’s why it is important for us to understand how much debt our members have when we look at loan applications.

Facing up to Debt

Debt can be a real burden if you are struggling to keep up repayments. A change in circumstances such as losing your job, a reduction in benefits or unexpected expenses that cause you to miss credit repayments are some of the ways that debt racks up and becomes unmanageable.

If you can’t manage your money and are struggling to meet your expenses, don’t ignore it and hope it will go away. Ignoring your debt will only make things worse and they can get out of control.

Worrying about debt can also affect your health and increase stress for you and your family.
