The Fadoo loan calculator lets you see how much your repayments would be over a period. The calculator assumes you are paying 1% interest per month on the reducing balance. Loans are only available to members aged 18 or over.
The credit union currently charges 1% per month for loans. (12.7% APR) This rate is charged only on the declining balance of the loan. For example the total interest payable on a £1000 loan repaid weekly over a period of one year would be £62.13.
