Isn't capitalism great.  I am now going to charge you %.0f just to see if you qualify for this loan.  And if you don't, I keep the money anyway.

I might just be able to do something for you here.  But it will cost you %.0f to find out.

It's up to you, whatever you do.  Pay %.0f to see what the answer will be.

%.0f will be the cost, if you fail it's lost.  Credit checks are fun when you hold the gun.

You pay your money, you take your chances.  A credit check is going to cost you %.0f non-refundable.

Well, the loan officers are not inclined to grant you this loan.  But if you pay me %.0f I might be able to talk them into it.  No guarantees though.

Pay %.0f right now, and we might just be able to find that loan for you.

Oh, I just love charging money for things.  You have to pay %.0f to see if you qualify for that loan.

We will gladly run a credit check to see you qualify.  It will cost you %.0f, and you won't get it back if you don't qualify.  Sound like a deal?

Your current credit rating won't allow such a loan.  If you would like we can run another credit check.  You might just qualify.  But it will cost you %.0f.  Do you want to do it?

You deadbeats are all the same.  Loan after loan.  Well its gonna cost you %.0f to find out if you've even got the credit rating.

Your credit is blown.  Pay %.0f and we'll see if you deserve a higher line of credit. 

Well now.  You seem to have exceeded your current line of credit.  If you must have this loan, it will cost you %.0f for another credit check.

Ha ha ha ha ha.  Ah ha ha ha ha.  Its going to cost you %.0f to find out if you've even got the credit.  Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

oooooo, I don't know about this.  That's more than your credit limit.  I'm afraid it will cost you %.0f to have your credit limit reassessed.
