From what I remember when I was looking into it if you get accepted you get your PC on credit plus a small fee for the financing. If you pay it all back by whatever date you agree to then you're sorted (6, 9 and 12 months I believe). If not then you'd go onto paying interest on the remaining balance over a number of months (again depending on the finance package you took).

Hope this helps :)

Wouldn't it be possible to pay monthly untill early 2012 and then pay the rest in one payment?
Doesn't the VAT of the computer also need to be included in the price?

The price used in the example includes VAT.

We only have 36 month & 48 month classic credit - where you pay a fixed amount every month for 3/4 years.

We also have 6, 9, 12 month buy now, pay later - you pay a deposit + arrangement fee then pay the remainder off before the agreed time-scale. I think is the sort of thing you are looking at.

If you take the Buy Now pay Later Package, then you can save up x amount each month, then call them to settle the balance before the 12 month period is up. You can pay off in early 2012 because that would be 16+ months, and the maximum package we allow is 12 months.
