SOS -- Short term liquidity problem -- New loan tomorrow

Hi there,

I need to get a loan tomorrow. I need £3k - £3.5k. So I need £3k on Tuesday, and get paid £2.1 on Wednesday. As you can see a short term problem.

Get 2.1k on 30th Jan, and £2.9 on 28 Feb so money can be paid off within 30 days.

Also have approx. £12k offshore which I am bringing over to UK.

My problem is I have a low score with HSBC (never used my account there, or paid in salary) so after 3 hours and 3 people saying yes I can do it I have now been told I can't. Just great!

What I need is a company in London that can deposit the loan in my bank tomorrow so I can get a bank draft tomorrow to pay by bond.

Can anyone suggest a company? I will supply salary details etc. which should be attractive enough.

Please help!

  • Why the sudden rush and why did you not think of bringing your funds across to UK sooner?

    Thanks for your helpful suggestion Ejones.
  • No problem.
    Just for one moment look at yourself!
    You say you have £12k somewhere - so why in heaven's name do you want to borrow.
    You didn't just wake up this morning and think to yourself Oh I must get a loan today did you. No planning ahead?
    Blame me for being unhelpful if you wish but it's nobody's fault other than the OP.
  • sorry to not be much help, but the way i see it is,
    pay them when you get the money. wont be taking that long for you to get the 12k ? unless its a dodgy 12k ?

    so the answer is, not get in debt. just tell whoever you owe the money to that you can pay them 1.5k tomorrow and then 1.5k on 28th efb, (and stick to it) and i am sure they will let you do that ?

    i know that honesty always works if you can pay off a lump when you make the promise.
