Little help regarding Apple Finance.

Fragil1ty · 14 Jun 2011 at 16:44

I've never used AF before so I thought, I've got a few hundred quid spare before University in September and well, I could buy my MBP now instead of getting it then in Sept, less hassle etc.

So I went ahead and ordered a MBP 13" and filled in all of the finance forms etc, and then at the end it said:

"Your application has been provisionally accepted, here is your apple number bla bla, we may need to contact you for further information."

What does it mean to be Provisionally accepted? I've never heard of this term before.

Thanks.

Oh so like I've not been fully accepted for Apple Financing as of yet? I could still be declined? ;_;

If I remember when I did mine, I had to log onto a website, provide one or two details and then it told me if I was accepted or not.

Then of course you need to sign and send off documents..

Could also check out http://www.andertons.co.uk/ they offer 0% finance and it is all done online, no forms to mess about with and they don't sell the items for more than Apple either.

Edit: Music shop, not a competitor in my eyes.

Did you get student discount? Also, before Uni starts they tend to give away iPods when you buy a Mac too.

Prepare to wait like 7 days + before the order is released, pending your acceptance of the finance.
