Borrowers usually pay this attention (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

interest

This clue is a double definition.

'borrowers usually pay this' is the first definition.

'attention' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for interest that I've seen before include "Money paid by borrower" , "Money found in street" , "Growth on capital sum" , "Deposit account gain" , "Benefit" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
