It helps to have additional finances during the holidays to make ends meet. If you need money but aren’t sure where to get it, then a commercial Harlingen bank may sound appealing. However, they usually offer unfixed interest rates. Our credit union in Harlingen provides financing for credit cards, auto loans, secured loans, and personal loans in Harlingen.
We want to debunk three borrowers’ fears about applying for a loan at our valley credit union.
Personal Loan Approval Takes Forever
False. Applying for any of our loans, including a Personal Loan, can be a quick and simple process! Please note:
- You can easily apply for loans online.
- Only a loan officer can approve your application.
- The loan amount is based on current income and credit score.
Low Credit Means No Cash Back
This simply is not true. Just because you have a low credit score does not mean you cannot still get a loan. Our credit union can help you find the right financing option for you. Learn more about how credit scores can impact your finances.
