Hi all,
I need to borrow £500 for a short term loan. I am currently in full time employment but get paid weekly. The trouble I have is that I have smashed my credit rating to pieces but I can prove that I have an income. Any recommendations
Thanks in advance

Ask your bank for an overdraft.0

Friends and family? Temporary loan from your employer?
Failing that your only other option is payday loans but you unless you are 100% positive you will have the funds in place to repay by the due date, you could be on a very slippery slope to debt and is probably not wise to have to resort to this type of lending in the first place.0 -
Do not touch a Payday loan with a barge pole.
If you find that you can't get a loan because you've smashed your credit rating, maybe you should consider not getting one at all?
Is the thing that you need it for reeeeeally worth it?0 -
