Well, I have heard many good feedbacks about Lending Club. This company operates already for many years and provides affordable personal loans. Actually I think that if you’re looking for borrowing money option it’s better to apply to alternative lenders than to traditional banks. Such communities really take care of their consumers and try to offer them very good conditions. Quite often they offer lower interest rates on loans than some banks do. Also Lending Club often cooperates with other companies to support, for example, women in business or people starting own business.
