| Is this loan right for me? - A Norwich Trust loan may be suitable if you are a UK homeowner looking for an unsecured fixed-rate loan and can afford the monthly repayments for the full term. It may not be suitable if you are struggling with essential bills, already missing repayments, or if extending borrowing would increase the total cost of credit in a way that is not affordable to you. If you have experienced recent defaults, missed payments or CCJs, eligibility will depend on your individual circumstances and affordability assessment. |
