Special Announcement
Our pilot is live in the Isle of Man through our subsidiary The Interest Free Loans Company Ltd trading as argid.im
Really liking the ethos behind this idea, and it couldn't be more pertinent. Couple of questions:
1. You mention that 17M people owe ~50M in non-mortgage debt. Obviously layering on (albeit interest free) debt in addition could be seen as risky. What sort of repayment plans will be available to ensure that this debt remains manageable?
2. Really interested to hear more about the education services that the platform would look to offer?
1) Only affordable debt over a period of time. No interest, fee or charges. We will do credit checks and full affordability assessment.
2) we will have budgeting tools and videos
Sounds great. Looking forward to following your journey! Be sure to keep us posted with updates :)
