Money Worries

Stefan – how Bumper helped student Stefan

Stefan is a computer science student working part-time to help fund his studies. He needs his car to balance his busy schedule and get him between uni and his job on time.

When his car wouldn't start one day on the way to work, Stefan knew it was something serious.

After taking it to the local garage, Stefan was faced with a large car battery replacement bill. He couldn't afford the upfront cost but needed his car to get to work to make money. Stefan was stuck in a catch-22 situation.

How Bumper Helped

His local mechanic knew to offer Bumper as an interest-free car repair finance solution, allowing Stefan to split the bill over monthly instalments.

A soft-credit check was performed and Stefan's full-bill was covered with Bumper!
