    The documents will be the terms and conditions for you to read and the credit agreement which you will need to sign. And they will have told you if you needed a guarantor.

    crouchy,

    Things you need to check: Amount, duration of loan, APR (annual equivalent interest rate) and whether the monthly payment is what you agreed and what is affordable for you.

    You should also check that they haven't included anything you don't want (payment protection insurance for example) although I think nationwide stopped selling this with personal loans.

    As the insider says, you have applied for an 'unsecured' personal loan which means no guarantor or charge against your house.

    Good luck
