Think about the impact

All our options are different, as they're designed around you. But they may have an impact on you too.

Before you apply, do make sure that you:

  • understand what your account will look like when a plan or hold ends – as not all of them will bring your account up to date
  • know how it might affect interest and your credit score
  • realise that you can’t apply for a payment holiday from here.

So please read it carefully.
