If I can manage to acquire 4 loans for my training over the last two years, there can be no reason for you to be turned down!!!!!!!! I sometimes wish I had been turned down now. You cannot say it's for flying training unless you go for a career development loan. That round the world holiday of $5000 looks good though....that might work?
Mine were for various things from cars to motorbikes to a conservatory. Needless to say I have no bike, no conservatory and separate car loans! Tell your bank manager you want the loan or you will take your account and business elsewhere. I threatened to take my rather considerable overdraft to another bank and it worked. Doh!!!
Hope you get sorted out.
