What Bluewater borrowers mean by a debt consolidation loan

The debt consolidation loan compared on this page is one loan that replaces several debts with a single scheduled payment, and Bluewater borrowers read it against the same provincial rules as the rest of Ontario.

Applied to Bluewater, the difference between two offers comes down to this: compare the total repaid under the new loan against the total owed on the old debts.

Because nothing is pledged, the debt consolidation loan for a Bluewater borrower is assessed on the strength of the file rather than on an asset.

What decides an outcome for Bluewater

A debt consolidation loan application from Bluewater is assessed on the same basis as anywhere in Ontario: the lender reads the total owed, the payments being replaced and the income available.

A lender reading a Bluewater file asks for proof of identity, proof of income, bank records and the balances owed elsewhere.

The information a Bluewater applicant supplies has to be accurate, because the lender can check it against records it already holds.

The Ontario rules that apply in Bluewater

Confirm the cap currently in force with the provincial regulator.

Bluewater, with 7,540 residents, sits in the smaller-population group of covered places, and size does not change the provincial rules that apply.
