I've never taken this type of loan before and had many questions. They explained everything patiently and I appreciate it especially since I was stressed out at that time. Some other places made me more stressed out. At the time I took the loan I was skeptical about how much it's going to cost me etc but now I can say they were very open and honest about the information they gave. I dealt with Brook the most and she was so helpful and even went out of her way in some cases to help. Thanks to Brook and her team.

A Line of Credit is a personal loan that can be used for ongoing personal expenses. It gives you access to your money when you need it. Once you’re approved, you will receive your loan credit limit. You have the flexibility to borrow any amount at any time, up to your approved credit limit. No need to reapply to access funds – if you have available credit, you can request additional advances.
What do I need to apply for a Line of Credit?
To apply with LendDirect, you will need to be at least 18 years old and have the following:
A valid ID
An open bank account in your name
Proof of recurring income
Be a Canadian resident

What is a Line of Credit advance?
Simply put, an advance is a convenient Line of Credit feature that allows you to withdraw funds from your personal Line of Credit when you need them.
