Would you borrow money from loan apps?

This is one of the trends here, I don’t know if loan apps exist in your country. The thing is when you borrow money from them, they will access all your contacts on the phone, and they will call or message them, telling them to convince you to pay your borrowed money. This embarrasses the loaner. Two of my teachers tried this app and the employees of loan apps called me repeatedly. I told them to call them not me because I was not the borrower Have you ever tried this app?

Yes, i know this, you are not the type who will borrow money. The not-so-wise spenders usually do this.

I would like to try out of curiosity if that is really true but downloading an app is a no no for me.

Borrowing from friends is better than borrowing from them.

I wouldn't use one of these apps. I don't understand why they would call friends and family, instead of the borrower. It makes no sense to me.

No I don't. It is better to borrow from the bank directly.
