If you need to get to loan but are
[1]
worried that bad credit will stop you
[3]
there's no need to stress, you do have
[5]
options. I'm going to show you what you
[7]
can do to maximize the chance to get
[9]
accepted even if you've had issues with
[11]
credit in the past. You should check out
[14]
the guide i've linked to below too, as it
[16]
walks you through your options step by
[17]
step so you know where to start.
[22]
Don't assume you've got bad credit if
[24]
you've never checked. There's no such
[26]
thing as a credit blacklist even if
[27]
you've had problems in the past
[28]
Knowledge is power and the first thing
[31]
you should do is to check your credit
[33]
history. This will help you understand
[36]
how good your credit actually is and
[39]
give you a chance to correct anything
[40]
that's wrong, but could harm your chances
[42]
of getting accepted
[44]
Now even if your credit score isn't great, there are lots
[47]
of tricks that you can use to improve it quickly.
[49]
Check out the link I've included
[51]
below for simple ways to build your
[53]
credit score so you maximize the chances of getting accepted.
[56]
While missed payments
[57]
and recent CCJs will mean it's
[59]
harder and more expensive for you to get
[61]
a loan, it's likely you should still be able too.
[63]
That doesn't mean that you necessarily should
[67]
If you need to borrow
[68]
to pay a bill then speak to the lender
[70]
to sort out a repayment plan first
[73]
The last thing you want to be doing is in a
[75]
situation where you have to rob Peter to pay Paul
[78]
Now if you have savings and
[79]
it's definitely worth considering using
[81]
them rather than borrowing and if you
[83]
really need the money and can't afford
[85]
whatever you're buying without borrowing
[87]
they give yourself a bit of a sense check
[89]
first to make sure you actually need it
[91]
and couldn't get it cheaper
[93]
The less you borrow the less you'll have to pay back
[95]
in interest.
[96]
Don't go straight for a payday or high cost loan.
[99]
They're really expensive ways to borrow, and getting one
[101]
can actually make it harder for you to
[103]
get credit again in the future
[105]
It's better to look at other options first
[107]
you might think the best place to go
[109]
first into bank but in reality they're
[111]
no more or less likely to give you a
[113]
loan than any other lender you'll still
[115]
have to go to the same credit and
[116]
affordability checks as everyone else
[118]
Now instead look for lenders let you
[121]
check your chance of acceptance before
[123]
you apply this gives you a way of
[126]
finding out whether you can get the loan
[128]
without the hurting your credit history
[130]
if you get rejected by one lender then
[132]
don't apply with another
[134]
straight away is it will do you more
[135]
harm than good you. You should be able to
[137]
find out why your applications turned
[139]
down and then can focus on making things
[141]
right before you apply again
[143]
If you need to borrow this bad credit you have a few
[145]
options a credit card could give you
[147]
access to the cash you need and
[149]
depending on your credit history can
[151]
actually help you borrow interest free
[152]
you may even be able to transfer
[155]
from your credit card to your current
[156]
account than pay it back over time just
[158]
like a loan. The brilliant thing is you
[161]
can check which credit cards you're
[162]
likely to get on money.co.uk
[164]
without actually applying
[165]
It's the fear-free way to find out whether this is an option
[169]
I've included a link to
[170]
our credit card acceptance checker below
[172]
now guarantor loans can give you a way
[174]
to borrow if a friend or relative is
[176]
willing to take joint responsibility for
[178]
the loan and promised the lender they'll
[179]
pay it back if you can't it can be a
[182]
good option if you've got bad credit
[184]
but it's really important your guarantor
[186]
knows what they're getting themselves
[187]
into as they could be left footing the
[190]
bill if you start to struggle
[193]
Now an overdraft might seem like an obvious
[195]
choice but it actually can work out more
[197]
expensive than a payday loan especially
[199]
if you go over your limit or take ages
[201]
to pay it back. Now check your limit and
[204]
the cost before considering this option
[206]
and if you do go down this route pay it
[208]
back as quickly as possible
[211]
If you need to borrow a larger amount for a number
[213]
of years and an unsecured loan could be
[215]
worth considering. You might not get the
[217]
best buy rate but it can actually be
[219]
more affordable than other options and
[221]
you should be able to check your chance
[223]
of getting accepted before you borrow too
[226]
Before you check out your options
[227]
you need to work out what you can
[228]
actually afford to repay first, then work
[231]
backwards to look at where to get the
[232]
money from. Borrow as little as possible
[235]
and pay it back over a short a time as
[237]
possible so you don't pay a penny more
[239]
on interest and you absolutely have to
[241]
