hey am a 22 year old guy working full time and havnt stopped working since 15. i do not have credit card or loans etc. but times have become hard and i needed money for my car and i applied for a loan and got rejected. i have since applied for other forms of money and everyone says no, banks, credit card companies, provident even said no. capital one even said no. banks wont even open up a normal bank card for me. i had fraud in my name last year and since then i can not get anything what so ever. any help or answers as to why

Check your credit file.
Applying for different types of credit could have a negative effect on your credit rating also, it looks like you are trying to take out too much credit and over commit yourself.DEBTFREE AND PROUD!!0 -

Be thankful you got refused. If times have become hard, the last thing you should be doing is getting a bank loan. How would you plan to pay back a loan if things are already tight?dancharnley wrote: »times have become hard............and i applied for a loan
As mentioned in the first post, what does you're credit file look like? You need to take some time out to resolve the issues you are having as they won't fix themselves.0 -

Oh dear.
If you have committed fraud, you will be excluded from every financial product going because nobody will want to touch you with a ten-foot bargepole. If you haven't, but someone else has stolen your identity, there are ways to repair this.
From what you're saying, it's the former. What happened?urs sinserly,
