How to find a loan if you have bad credit
So, you have been behind with your existing credit or you have requested your credit file from Experian and you have discovered to your dismay that you have bad credit. You may have applied for a loan and you have been refused, you may have made several applications and all of them have been turned down. Your are not alone. It is true that today, one in four people are likely to have less than perfect credit record. Nevertheless, it is most depressing when you find that you cannot get a loan because of your bad credit record. Before you start making loan applications you may find it useful to read our advice on improving your credit record and improve your chances of getting a loan.
The credit crunch has made it even more difficult for somebody who has an impaired credit record to find a loan, particularly if you are a tenant and cannot provide security. Many high street banks will not lend unless you have excellent credit record.
What are bad credit loans?
There are a multitude of reasons that could negatively affect your credit rating and impair your ability to get a loan in the future. In the current economic climate it is easy to fall into debt because of a change in circumstances, losing your job, too many bills arriving at the same time, or simply missing the odd bill or credit card payment. Even people who do not borrow and spend may see their credit ratings damaged - they may forget to settle a utility bill or end up with an unpaid parking fine, leaving them looking for bad credit loans. Then, of course, there are people who have CCJs, those who have defaulted on their mortgage repayments and people who have just emerged from bankruptcy. However, in those circumstance, if you decide to look for a loan or need to borrow money you will generally find that high street lenders are not suitable. What you need is a bad credit loan.
