That site or forum where you can take loans from other members?

    I read about a website or forum, where those people give (reputed members of the same forum) quick loans for short term. I forgot the URL of that site, I read about that here on DP or some other forum. I think, someone posted the URL of it when a member asked for a loan here. If you know about such kind of sites, please post the list here. I tried searching in Google with different keywords, but no luck!

    That is not a company which offers loans, but just a website where the members help each other. Thanks for your help!

    You are probably thinking of peer lending sites like Prosper.com and peer-lend.com. These sites let others with money offer loans to anybody who uses the site. Often the loans have a high interest rate, around 15% or more, and there is no guarantee about either the lenders or the lendees, so it is loan and borrow at your own risk.

    Thank you guys. @mikey1090, it's not Warrior forum (if you were serious about it). @mshore, it seems they are not the one I am looking for. Will have to check prosper.com again (it was under maintenance when I visited). I think, it had the word "bucks" in the domain. Anyway, thanks again for your replies.

    15% interest rate ? That is impossible . Are there any foolish person to accept such high rate . I don't think so.
