bad debt loans
Hello all, I'm new to this site so Im sorry if this question has alreay been answered before. I just wanted to know what the thoughts are on these 'bad debt loans' companies? I have been looking at them to attempt to help my credit rating, but I so unure if its a good idea or not. I mean a good rule is if it looks too good to be true, it propbably is. Its so confusing.
Has anyone had any dealings with these companies, or know people that have? I would be very grateful for any imformation and/or opinions please
Thank you:eek:

It's a rubbish idea, I mean REALLY rubbish.
Get yourself a credit card, spend small amounts on it and clear it EVERY month without fail.
I will say again, your idea is a rubbish one and fraught with danger.0 -
Sorry I wasn't too clear, I need the loan as well, just the helping with the credit rating would be a bonus. Big no to credit cards, I can not be trusted, so will not even entertain one.
Thank you for your reply though

What makes you say you have bad credit. If you do, then no one is going to lend to you at a reasonable rate and you'll be left with a payday loan or a doorstep lender as your only hoping, at very high interest rates.
Neither of the above is likely to help rebuild a bad credit rating.0
