Tesco Loan Advice Please
Hi Guys,
So I applied for a Tesco loan on Sunday and was approved in principle, I recieved my papers yesterday (Tuesday) and sent them away same day.
I then got a call today asking for an original Utility bill or Bank statement just to prove my address as I am not currently registered to the electoroll!
My question is that as I do online banking and all our bills are in my wifes name so I have ordered an original copy of last months statement from my bank which takes 5 days to post, has anyone gone through all this and then be declined for the loan at the end of it all?

You've only been approved in principle on the information you've provided, once they have all the papers they will search your file, so you could still be declined.0

The papers will be fine, I didn't have any either so just printed them off the internet. They accepted the papers, so don't worry about this.0
