Loan after mortgage
Hello everyone hope your all well, I have just completed this week and got my keys on Tuesday , I was wondering how long I should wait to apply for credit ? I’ve seen this present I want to get on goldsmiths which is with v12 finance group , and was just wondering when I should apply for it ? It’s £5500 in credit , but I’ve been thinking that I should be okay , because when I go on ClearScore and go on my offers for loans, I’m already pre approved 100% for a loan up to £15000 , so I cousin see why v12 wouldn’t lend that to me ? Any help would be much appreciated !

Given the change of address you'll probably find those offers will dry up.
Besides, why are you borrowing a ridiculous amount of money for a present? If you can't afford to pay for it outright, it's far too much.0 -

Borrowing such a large sum of money for a present is lunacy.1 -
It's lovely to get someone a gift that is what they always wanted and for you to be looking to be true to your promise to get it for them one day when you can afford it.
IMO, this type of promise can only be afforded when you can do so from savings and without jeopardising your day-to-day or emergency funds. A true friend will fully understand that - indeed, I would be mortified if I thought a friend was getting themselves into debt for me.

Why not just buy it outright if you can afford it. I too think it's madness considering you just bought a house I bet they would rather you put the money towards the house.
