Only if you absolutely NEED to borrow to plug a short-term hole in your finances, don&#8217;t automatically assume you&#8217;re frozen out by \u2018normal&#8217; banks and that short-term loans are your only option. Start by asking your bank, or similar. Ask your bank for an approved overdraft facility before going to a short term lender. Sometimes its better to come to an arrangement with your creditors than engaging their services.\u00a0<\/em><\/p><div>\u00a0<\/div><p><em>We also strongly advise that you borrow no more than is necessary. So if you need\u00a0 \u20ac400 to get you to the next paycheck don&#8217;t be tempted to add another \u20ac100 because its easy to do so.
