bad credit NonHomeOwner Unsecured personal loans

Hey First Post ;)

So I've i'm on the road to a better financial situation...
Looking at all aspects of using my money more wisely,from food to bills...
Been looking around the site and didnt find a section that really dealed with unsecured personal loans for nonhomeowners...

I'm looking to get a "small" loan but I'm a tenent and have bad credit...
I'm currently overdrawn with barclays for £279 (gonna reclaim my bank charges from them:D )...
I have kinda a bad credit history of being overdrawn etc...
And wanted to know which banks (if any) or where do u get a loan if u have bad credit and arent a homeowner...
I've seen some websites like "YESLOAN"...but cos i've never taken out a loan before in my life..and cos my credit history isnt that great..I dont want to get shafted...
I want to get a loan for about between £900 and 1500...(i'm just sitting down now working out the least i could borrow to get my things in order depending on interest etc)...

if someone could help that would be...erm...well...really helpful innit...

Seriously though,i'd appreciate any advice about badcredit loans...which places do them etc
thanks
