Hello,

Im looking for a loan have read many threads telling me which companies to avoid but none for who to go for? Can anyone recommend any good companies? Looking for about £4000 to sort out my debts, not the best credit rateing in the world. Applided for halifax last week who said no and about year ago to A+L and Sainsburys so looking at the less known companies i think.


Thanks

    Perhaps the refusals are a sign that no-one wants to give you any credit.

    There are many many threads on here about paying your debts off without getting even further into debt. Spend a couple of hours reading the debt free wannabee forum and hopefully you will have a much better idea about things.
  • Looks to me that you have already got a loan or loans (ie debt) so why do you want more?
    With your less than perfect credit history you are not going to get a great deal whoever takes you on.

    So why not turn this around and find ways of reducing your outgoings and if possible increase your income and then start overpaying your cards and loans you have now?
