What is the procedure for Borrowers to use the Lending Club?

For the borrowers, the following is the simple procedure that needs to be followed if they wish to get access to their loans:

  1. The potential borrower first needs to fill the online form that will ask for the borrower’s personal credentials:

    – The Date of Birth of the Applicant
    – The Monthly Earnings
  2. The applicant will then be asked to define an amount for the loan which must lie in the range of $1,000 to $40,000 and then select the purpose for the loan for example for home renovations or to pay medical bills or for any other major reason. 
  3. The borrower will then be provided with rate offers and the Lending Club itself do a soft check on the applicant’s credit. The borrower will then be presented with the final offer which would include the principal loan amount, rate of interest, the exact repayment amount each month and all the terms and conditions of the loan.
  4. Lending Club also then assigns a grade for the risk for every borrower according to the rating on the credit, the exact amount of the loan to be assigned and other compulsions with it. The grades are already defined above.

The better this grade is the more weight-age will be given to the desired interest amount that the borrower will be given. Even the higher amounts of loans will be given to those who have a better grade.

What if the borrower wishes to cancel the loan?

What if you wish to reject your loan after it has been applied for and funds have been made available then the borrower will have 5 days for its cancellation.

The borrower needs to make a call to Lending Club as soon as possible and let the money stay in the registered and linked bank account and then the Lending Club will cash it back during 5 to 7 business days.

Important Cues that the borrower needs to remember
