    So you have 20k on 1 loan and 10k on another loan which with you just 1 loan to consolidate these debts.

    So you have 30k of debt and want to borrow another 30k, I take it your on well over 100k a year if not you won't be asking this?

    As said, unless your income is £100K+, you have absolutely no chance.
    Even with that income, it is doubtful, as you could theoretically have £60K worth of debt. There is nothing stopping you just wasting the additional £30K on a horse race.

    Consolidation loans are very difficult to get in these times for exactly the reason above.

    The banks don't know that you aren't going to blow the lot on a car and a holiday.

    £25K is generally the absolute limit for an unsecured loan, and these are only offered to high earners with an impeccable credit history.
    I used to think that good grammar is important, but now I know that good wine is importanter.
