At least that's what Avant website suggests though t.b.h my payments are scheduled form 28th each month so not until Weds'
Anyway what I did do accidentally whilst checking Avant site was click on 'check my rate' for borrowing.
Something I did think of recently after reading a few negative Avant posts, is that when is it possible to apply for a new loan. What todays unintended click meant was a message advising Unfortunately, due to your recently paid off loan, you cannot apply until April 02, 2018'
That's answers that then,thankfully as I don't want a new loan at least over next 3 months possibly not until 2019-nice to know in advance though

    If you don't need a new loan until 2019 start saving what your payments were on your last one to build up a fund and then by 2019 you may find you don't need a loan at all.

    Sensible advice as it's only £60 per month though I could start a often avoided Emergancy cash fund.

    Thanks mser's
    I did get into 'swiping' a few pounds on pay day for a few years.
    Got slightly annoyed as it was a bathroom emergency which called on me to spend savings.
    No excuse though-saving is prob an excellent idea-I shall start from April wage.
    I did enjoy swiping via mobile it was fun,painless and convienent.

    Tried to get an APR on a future Avant loan-which couldn't be provided.
    I honestly think this is due to lower part time salary.
    Not too bothered -maybe I'll return to full hours and wages and re consider Avant next year.
