I am going to get an appleloan. I was interested by the fact that there was 6 month same as cash. I went to an Apple Store and an emplyoee said that the minimum to get teh 6 month same as cash was like $2,300. But on the wepage it doesnt say anything. Is there any minumum loan? PLease help

Minimum Loan is $1000, however I'd say the same as cash thing is probibaly what the Apple Store Guy said.

You'll get your exact terms spelled out before you have to accept the loan. Things like the limit, "6 months same as cash" clause, interest rate (assuming you don't pay in 6 months or use the account again later), etc. If I remember the procedure, it's
1) Fill out the Application
2) Get approved or denied
3) Call a toll free number to verify information
4) Get the final version of the terms
5) Accept or decline
You can back out at any time up until the point where you click on the "I accept this loan" part.

I would avoid the Apple Loan. Get a line of credit from your own bank (or even better, your credit union) instead.

Depends on how you're going to use it. If you will pay it off before the 6 months is up, no local bank or credit union will be able to beat the 0% financing.
