Finder Score for unsecured loans
To make it even easier to compare and evaluate unsecured loans we came up with the Finder Score. Speed, features and flexibility across 60+ lenders are all weighted and scaled to produce a score out of 10. The higher the score the better the lender – simple.
Our calculator lets you pick how much you want to borrow over a time frame that suits you, so you can estimate how much you would pay back each month and pay back overall. We base our calculations on Norwich Trust’s representative APR, but it’s important to note that your circumstances can affect the rate you’re offered.
Please note: You should always refer to your loan agreement for exact repayment amounts as they may vary from our results.
Late repayments can cause you serious money problems. See our debt help guides.

What is an unsecured loan?
An unsecured loan is a loan that doesn’t require you to put any assets at risk should you default on the loan. A better credit score is often required to take out an unsecured loan, as there is no collateral protecting the lender.
How does a Norwich Trust unsecured loan work?
Norwich Trust’s rates are tailored to you and may vary from the advertised representative APR. You can apply in as little as a few minutes with no impact on your credit rating. Your credit rating will only be impacted when the loan is paid out. You must be a homeowner to apply for the loan.
You won’t be hit with any upfront fees, and because the interest rates are fixed, you’ll always pay the same each month. You can request an early settlement figure, which includes an early settlement interest of approximately 2 months interest and is valid for 28 days.
APR and Representative APR explained
The Annual Percentage Rate (APR) is a summary of the yearly cost of a loan. It takes into account both interest and any unavoidable charges you'll need to pay (for example an arrangement/product fee) over the duration of a loan. Because Norwich Trust doesn't charge an arrangement fee, its APR comprises just the interest rate – and so they're one and the same.
However, the vast majority of lenders tailor rates (and therefore APRs) to the individual applicant. If they think you're a riskier bet, they'll offset that by offering you a higher APR. The "representative APR" (as defined by the Financial Conduct Authority) is what Norwich Trust gives to at least 51% of those who take out the loan. The other 49% could pay more. Norwich Trust must calculate APR in the same way as other lenders, and must tell you your personal APR before you sign a loan agreement.
Norwich Trust advertises a representative APR of 27.9% on loans between £20,000 and £20,000 on the Norwich Trust Personal Loan.

Our verdict
If you have had credit problems in the past, then Norwich Trust could be a good option for taking out a loan that doesn’t require you to put up your house or car as collateral or sign a guarantor. As with any loan, you should only borrow within your means. If you can’t make the repayments, you run the risk of damaging your credit score.
