How many home credit companies are there and what are they called?

I know of Provident and Greenwood Finance, but im told there are more that provide small home cash loans?

There are other small companies that offer home credit, they are usually found under the loans/finance section of a local newspaper, or local Thomson directory. Places such as Cash Converters also offer small loans. Only other main one I can think of is Shopacheck.

I only know of Provident...but I have heard stories of others who they call 'loan sharks'

Sorry they are limitless there go to the search engine and search for mortgages companies

There are far too many.
