Applying for a loan while living abroad
in Banking, Insurance & Loans ·
To be clear, I didn't give him my PIN, nor did I scan my card. He just stopped responding entirely, so after a few days, I sent a message asking what on earth he was doing with my credit 🙂. His excuse? He claimed he was there, but we hadn't reached out. Now, I'm essentially badgering him to provide a phone number so I can actually call him. We’ve been having these very polite, very tedious exchanges on Facebook regarding the loan. And now, suddenly, he’s bringing up some insurance from $267 🙂 and whatnot. I am genuinely curious to see where this circus goes next...🙂 At this point, I find the whole ordeal quite entertaining 🙂.
Anyway, I submitted an inquiry directly through here http://www.reliancecapital.co.in/contactus.html and their response was that I am eligible for the following;
LOAN TERMS AND REPAYMENT SCHEDULE:
==============================
Loan Balance: $100,000.00
Loan Interest Rate: 2.00%
Loan Term: 30 years
Monthly Loan Payment: $369.62
Number of Payments: 360
Cumulative Payments: $133,062.94
Total Interest Paid: $33,062.94
Note: The monthly loan payment was calculated at 359 payments of $369.62 plus a final payment of $369.36.
Naturally, they insist you need to pay 200 dollars upfront just to be "safe" since you're a novice. But, to be fair, they do have a functional website. A little due diligence goes a long way.
Then there is that microfinance entity 🙂 ...soooo 🙂 it's just endless typing. Some private investor claims to be from France. Then he tells you he needs to pass you off to his manager in Italy. Next thing you know, this guy contacts you claiming to be a public notary, Nicola Pietro Zappatore. Of course, you're expected to send 365 dollars via Western Union. He even shared all sorts of documentation—IDs, passports, the works. He even acted quite wounded 🙂 because I don't seem to trust him.
In a moment of sheer sarcasm, I wrote back and asked if he wouldn't mind simply LENDING me those 365 dollars, promising to pay him back once the loan is approved. 🙂
