Hi. My name is Gabi. In spite of my HR rating on Prosper I actually have a good credit track record - for the most part. I'll explain the bad first. About three years ago I had some financial hardships and I went delinquent on ONE credit card. The credit card company took my three thousand dollar balance, added fees, and increased the interest rate to a staggering amount... then sent it to collection. This brought the balance up to almost five grand. However, I was able to maintain my other credit, and in fact financed and paid off an automobile through Toyota Motor Credit. Additionally, I have been building my credit by making all of my payments on time on my other credit cards, and I also have a second auto loan through CitiFinancial, which is now over a year old. I HAVE NEVER MADE A LATE PAYMENT ON ANY OF THESE ACCOUNTS. I pay all my bills on time and realize the importance of building my credit worthiness.  

The reason for this loan is to settle the one collection account mentioned above. I have an offer to settle the account for the three grand that I was responsible for in the first place, and I would like to take advantage of the opportunity. This will really help me improve my credit rating. I'm a 27 year old office manager with a Bachelors Degree in Finance. I have worked for the same company since graduating from college and I have a stable position.  

  • I have very good job security and I've been with my current employer since graduating college.
  • I've been able to manage my credit through hard times and now my income is very stable
  • The timely repayment of this loan is extremely important to me. My goal is to pay it off early.

Thank you for your consideration.
