Each product is priced separately. Compare them below.
Four questions checked against Parachute's published criteria, per product. No application started.
Parachute reads credit as a band, 600 to 750, and sitting above it is as disqualifying as sitting below.
Below 600 the answer is the familiar one. Above 750 the answer is also no, because the published range has a top as well as a bottom, and the product lives between them.
No bankruptcy, consumer proposal or judgement can appear on the credit bureau. The wording covers the record itself, not only programmes still in force, so a discharged history still shows and still counts.
