How were my loan terms decided?
Loan decisions are made based on a variety of factors including credit history, income, expenses, and availability and value of collateral (if applicable). Each customer’s loan terms are offered based on these factors and the customer’s ability to repay so that each customer can make a decision based on their unique situation and needs.
I was not offered as much money as I applied for. Is it possible to receive a larger loan?
Yes. You may be able to receive a larger loan by reapplying with a co-applicant and/or with collateral of sufficient value. Call us today at (800) 961-5577 to speak with a loan specialist and discuss your options.
My application was turned down. How do I find out the reasons for this decision?
If your application was turned down, you will receive a letter by email or physical mail explaining that your loan is declined and instructions for obtaining specific reasons behind the decision.
I got a OneMain loan but changed my mind. Can I cancel?
Yes. We give you 7 calendar days from the date of your loan to cancel, if you still have the funds. Click here for important details
What kind of collateral can I use to secure a loan?
Examples of accepted collateral include:
- Automobiles
- Trucks
- Motorcycles
- Boats
- Campers
- RV's
- All collateral will undergo appraisals to determine whether it is of sufficient value.
Additionally, vehicles used as collateral must be insured against physical damage for the term of the loan.
Active duty military, their spouse and all dependents covered by the Military Lending Act may not pledge any vehicle as collateral.
Please contact your local branch for more information regarding collateral.
Why do I need full coverage insurance on the collateral used for security on my loan?
Because the collateral is securing your loan, the collateral must be insured in case it needs to be replaced or repaired. The full coverage ensures that the entire value of the collateral is protected.
If you have more questions about this topic, call us today at (800) 961-5577.
What happens if my collateral is damaged?
Call us today at (800) 961-5577 or visit your local OneMain branch and notify the manager of the damage. Your loan expert will explain the next steps dependent upon the type of collateral that was used to secure your loan.
How long does it take to apply for and receive a loan?
The amount of time to apply for and receive a loan varies based on what time of day you submit your application, the number of documents required in order to approve your application and how long it takes to receive those documents, among other factors.
Average time to complete the application and receive an initial response: Less than 10 minutes. Receiving a final decision will take longer and will depend on the amount of time required to verify your application information.
After you sign your loan documents, you will receive your loan funds:
- By SpeedFunds: Funds are deposited on the loan closing date into the bank account associated with your debit card. Requires a bank-issued debit card.

I was contacted by a possible scam, what can I do?
OneMain Financial is aware of an External Advance Fee Scam in which fraudsters are using OneMain Financials’ (OMF) name in their fraudulent loan offers. The scam uses OneMain Financial’s name, logo, and at times branch contact information as part of the scheme. The scammers can exploit the victim’s phone, text and email accounts with wording and/or documents posing as OneMain Financial representatives.
OneMain Financial representatives:
- Do Not request payment of fees upfront and will never ask you to purchase or place money on debit or gift cards (e.g. Google Play cards).
- Do Not ask for your username or password from your Financial Institution.
- Do Not put money in your Financial Institution’s Bank account for you to return the payment to them.
- Do Not use Gmail addresses. Look at the email address. If it ends in gmail.com it is not from OneMain Financial.
If you have been involved in or have been a victim of an External Advance Fee Scam, we recommend that you take these necessary steps to protect your information and prevent potential financial loss:
- Stop all contact with fraudsters. Do not speak to them anymore. Do not give them information or send money, gift cards and/or insurance cards.
- If you have given the scammers your personal Bank information (account, PIN, credit card numbers, etc.) please contact the issuing Financial Institution and advise of what occurred and ask on what action you need to take.
- You should also consider contacting the credit reporting agencies (Experian, Transunion & Equifax) to place an Extended Fraud Alert with your phone number and/or freeze your credit report.
- You can contact the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) at www.ftc.gov or 877-438-4338 to report this incident. The FTC may ask for the fraudster’s contact information.
