    Why on Earth did you apply without researching first?

    There are so many posts about brokers pretty much everyone who has entered the loans forum must have seen them.

    I think you may as well dump the phone, you are going to be inundated with brokers trying to get their hands on your cash.
  • I have researching on how to choose a good online loan provider ,below are the following tips

    1.Learn to compare
    2.Consult your financial advisor
    3.Read the terms and conditions carefully
    4.Never feel guilty to ask questions
    5.Research about various providers

    6. Never follow a link in the profile of a Spammer.

    There's even a spelling mistake in the wording that slides into the happy/smiley picture bit, that would be enough to put me off.

    Take a wild guess..

    Of course he didn't get a loan, nobody is going to randomly ring you up and give you a loan.. Why would they??
