Have you missed a credit card/loan payment?

If you have missed a loan or credit card payment

If you’ve missed a credit card or loan repayment your account is in ‘arrears’. That means we may charge you more interest, and we may have to report the missed payments to the Central Credit Register which may affect your credit history. It will cost more over the long term if your loan or credit card is in arrears. Here is what you should to as soon as possible

Pay back the missed payments as soon as you can

While you are in arrears your credit rating may be affected which means it may be more difficult for you to get a loan in the future.

How we have helped other customers in your situation

Killian’s story

Killian had a car loan, personal loans and credit cards. All the payments seemed manageable on their own, but when his job suddenly became part-time the payments were mounting up and suddenly became overwhelming. He was now missing payments on his credit card and his personal loans as he struggled to keep pace. After a few calls with Killian we worked out how to consolidate all the loans and arrears and agreed a repayment plan. It did mean that Killian had to reduce his spending, but it felt great to be back in control.
Bill’s story

Bill had never missed payments before. Unfortunately his employer had to close his business. Bill was worried that if he missed a payment, his credit rating would be affected. Bill phoned us and we were able to adjust the payment terms for his loan. He also used our budgeting tool to help manage his finances. We also explained the options for the credit card repayments, which helped him to avoid charges. Learn more about fees and charges.
