Higher interest & higher acceptance fee..

With more private lenders offering no 1st payment, that means additional 1 week interest to be paid. However it's seem the weekly interest has gone up to 6.66% per week of the principle loan. This can easily chalk up to 40% for 1.5 months. I was inform that Illegal Loan shark also up their interest from 20% to 25%. However who is going with inflation of Singapore.

The acceptance fee has gone from 5% from the 1st time I start this blog to as high as 15% or even 20%. Add to the interest it can be as high as 60% interest just for 6 weeks. OMG!

The acceptance fee seem to be their assurance to loan less in case of defaulting and also their form of customer service by charging you less acceptance fee or waive your interest if you repay easy.

Few days back...I personally witness a borrower trying desperately to loan 5k. Haha! Yes I am back for some tour in Peninsula Plaza.. He claim he earn $4k a month and no debt with banks or any other lenders and even tell the counter girl to check. I was wondering why he did not approach the bank. He said he need it only once and that's it. Sadly the staff did not honestly tell him that for first timer it is just $1k loan even you are as rich as Bill Gates. It is still $1k. As their SOP, the staff ask the man to go for coffee and will call him if it is approved or SMS him if it it not. The result Is simple.

Amazing more people are approaching them and it seem this is really a money world, cash in hand with no considerisation it will be going towards the another people hand after that. The best thing is more and more of these companies are surfacing and some of these companies are under the same Boss or management... For some reasons, maybe if their license ger revoked..etc.
This remind me of the bubble tea era but look again... Bubble tea is back. And not forgetting it is one of the oldest trade which can be compete with the lifeline of cockroach. Lol!
