Why do you need £25k? If it's to pay for the Personality Horse world tour, I'd not bother.

£25K is the most you can borrow without it being tied to your house (I think)I went over 15 years at £293 a month. Needed it for the move but going to get a much bigger one to pay it off and extend once we are sorted

How quick?Send snotty emails to your bank about PPI.
Try to reband your council tax
Ebay shit you don't need
Zopa loans are good if you've got a very good credit rating.

Re banding your council tax is surely more likely to make it go up since they are based on 1990 prices(, Thu 7 Mar 2013, 10:48, Reply)
It can go up or down, but most likely down.You can check if any of your neighbours have been successful online. Definatly worth while. www.moneysavingexpert.com/reclaim/council-tax-bands-change

I don't understand how it can go down?My house would have been worth at least a hundred grand less in 1990.
(, Thu 7 Mar 2013, 10:56, Reply)
No, it's that in 1990 they just drove past your house and said "It's worth 100k so it's a band whatever" without looking inside or anything. Actually it was only worth 80k in 1990 so it should be the band lower.
(, Thu 7 Mar 2013, 10:58, Reply)
How do they tell what it was actually worth in 1990 then?I've just checked the barnet tax bands, and band G is between 160K and 320K. That's the minimum you'd pay for a house which is what makes the council tax system so ridiculous.
