Virgin Money FAQs

How many payslips are required to present as proof of income?

It depends on your employment status. If you are employed and paid monthly, you need to present wage slips from the past three months. Those who are paid weekly are required to present wage slips from the past four weeks. Pensioners need to present a recent award letter from either Department of Work and Pensions or from a private pension provider.

What other information do I need to present?

Besides proof of income, you may also be asked to present your addresses from the last three years. Also, prepare the details of your monthly expenses ready for presentation. These expenses include any mortgage or rent, credit cards, and current personal loan repayments.

How long does it take for Virgin Money to release the funds upon approval?

Once your personal loan is approved, the loaned amount is typically uploaded to your account within two hours. If not, the latest will be at the end of the next business day.

Is there an option for early loan repayment?

Yes, but with a cost. Virgin Money will compute the interest they will lose due to early repayment. The bank offers three early repayment options. First, you can pay everything you owe at once. Second, you can make one extra repayment to reduce the principal amount. Lastly, you can opt to add more than one extra repayment to lower your monthly repayments.
