Emergency Loans for Bad Credit

Anything (as long it’s legal) * 😀

How you use the money is up to you, though one of the main requirements from all lenders is that the repayments are comfortably affordable for you.

Past customers have used their emergency funds for:

• Vehicles – car repairs and replacement
• Home – maintenance and repairs
• Travel – to see sick friends and family
• Tax – to pay unexpected bills
• Business – to cover unexpected loss of income
• Consolidating debts – reducing monthly credit payments
• and much more…

* Though many lenders will not allow expenses such as gambling

Loans available from £1,000 to £10,000 💷

AFFORDABILITY

• One of the main things our lenders look is whether the credit is affordable to you (and if applicable your guarantor) for the full term of the agreement.
• Also see: Loan Criteria?

OTHER THINGS TO CONSIDER

• Try and think calmly about the situation you are in and the money you need.
• Work out the minimum amount you need to borrow.
• Remember anything you borrow must be paid back plus interest.
• If you can ‘sleep on it’, this will help you to make a rational decision.
• Try cutting back on other things in your life and business so to minimise any borrowing.

IF YOU ARE THINKING OF CONSOLIDATING EXISTING BORROWING YOU SHOULD BE AWARE THAT YOU MAY BE EXTENDING THE TERMS OF THE DEBT AND INCREASING THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU REPAY

CHEAPER 👍

If you have a poor credit rating, then the guarantor loan is typically the lowest cost

• Guarantor: 29% – 54.9%
• Doorstep: 535% – 757%
• Installment: 135% – 1,315%
• Payday: 365% – 1,575%

Before you apply, consider whether an additional debt is the only solution for you 🤔

Some ideas

• Vehicles
  • Friend or relative who is ‘good with cars’ who may be able to help with cheaper repairs?
  • Are you able to look up how to solve the problem online and do it yourself?
  • Buy a much cheaper vehicle up until you have saved the money for the one, you’d prefer?

• Home
  • Does that repair really need to be done now?
  • Friend or relative who may be able to help with cheaper repairs?
  • Are you able to look up how to solve the problem online and do it yourself?

• Tax
  • Try calling the Inland Revenue, discuss your situation, and if they can help with a payment plan?

• Business
  • Try speaking to your suppliers, and see if they will extend their terms so that maybe some of your expenses are deferred to when you can afford them?

In many situations, there can be alternative solutions and it is sensible to consider all these before committing to more debt.

Good question*

GUARANTOR
