    Are you from the UK, "25000GBP" makes me question? This is a UK website.
    A loan would be better for this amount, although credit cards would be possible if you have good credit history. It could take a period of months to do successfully due to the probable need of multiple cards with spaced out applications, and if you cant pay the money back before interest charging starts you would be reliant on tarting and getting another good deal or be stuck with a massive interest rate.
