Loan advice

If you select other when applying for a loan is it always manually reviewed or can the application still be accepted fairly quickly?

The use of loan is for home improvements but also for another use which isn't in the drop down menu so unsure on option selection

Also are you better off applying via an intermediary or directly?

If we were to apply but then in end not need it are you charged full loan amount + full interest or is interest only charged up until the settlement date?

Thank you
