Borrowing through peer to peer

Options
Hi all,

I have been reading on this site about the peer-to-peer sites that can be used for savings. However, it only seems to talk about it from a saver's point of view. Can anybody say whether this is a good option for borrowing money?

Thanks in advance.

  • They're much the same as borrowing from banks. They will do credit checks and make entries on your credit file. They can be cheaper than traditional banks to borrow from.

    I don't know what their missed and late payments policy may be so you should check their Ts & Cs before borrowing.
