hi,
anyone know any decent loan companies that will approve a loan for around £2000 when you have really bad credit or companies that take your info into consideration without certain checks?

Write the following letter:
"Dear Mr Money Lender,
I have forgotten to pay my loans on time in the past. Please will you lend me £2,000.
My knee caps are clean and ready to take whatever's coming.
Yours sincerely,
Death_pill"
In all seriousness, no. At least not at a sensible price. Don't go scanning the brokers as they will invariably scam you out of £70 and not find you a loan. Avoid the pay aye at loan companies as they are a route to misery for many.
Perhaps clarifying your "really bad credit" will help others to verify my answer or identify an alternative.
Perhaps saving up is the route to go down if you can afford a loan payment.0 -
From the MSE English dictionary.
Really bad credit:
Thinks loan payments are optional.
Thinks has been mis-sold the loan.
Thinks he needs shinny item NOW.
Thinks its all the fault of the nasty banks.
Thinks he can afford it even though struggling already.
Thinks the bigger the APR the better as bigger numbers are better right!
Thinks getting one loan to cover another is good money management.0 -
You sound a really sensible guy with money Phil.

Let's think about this. If you were in the money lending business, and I told you that my credit record was as bad as you say that yours is. Would you lend me any money. I think not. So there's your answer.I can afford anything that I want.
Just so long as I don't want much.0 -

Only thing he would be able to do as his knee caps will be smashed in, might end up with broken so would have to sell the phone.
Whats the money for OP ?
OP get rid of the phone contract and sell the phone for a start.0 -
Why £2,000? Why borrow? Surely the first time the elastic band snapped was painful enough?0
