Help keep getting turned down for loan and not got much debt at all

Hello,

can someone tell me why I am getting rejected for every loan I apply for when I don't owe much money and never had any problems or ccj's.

Does anyone also know of a good company to try for a loan to help me.

Many thanks in advance
Mike

    Are you on the electoral roll ?

    Whats your salary ?

    Any debts/loans ?

    How much were you asking for ?

    It might have been the figure you were asking for that got you declined.

    I do love these posts where we have this magical guesstimate power to work out why he was rejected with no info whatsoever.

    It is because in 1984, the sun only came out for 346 hours that whole year.

    Maybe its a hint that we should gain the powers to work out why people get rejected for loans. Could make quite a few bob from it.

    I know how you feel - now I'm working 3 hours/week I've all the time in the world to enjoy driving a Ferrari, but nobody will lend me the money! It's so unfair.

    You obviously don't earn enough money or are trying to spend too much on something that's a luxury in the lenders' opinion. It's too risky for them.
