Hello out there 
I’m looking to get a loan to put all my credit cards into one payment 
is it normal on apps from the App Store for the lender to ask you to let them look through yr account by you signing in and then checking transactions etc

    Stop! Sometimes it works out more expensive doing this. Be very careful, maybe ask for advice here before making any rash decisions.

    No. Please be very wary of downloading apps and entering your banking details on them. Some people find they've accidentally signed up to all sorts of things and have money taken out of their accounts which is difficult to get back.
