Loan for person with bad credit rating

Hi there fellow moneysavers.
I have had credit problems in the past but am now addressing them with a monthly budget plan that I am sticking to and have down for some time and am a lot happier for it.

As my credit rating is still 'tarnished', I am having trouble getting a loan through the normal means.
I am after a small loan, say £750 for some essential home maintenance and was wondering if anyone on here knows of a site that offers loans to people with a poor credit rating that doesn't charge an up front fee. (I am a private tenant, been in the same job for 6 yrs, salary £1335 a month take home)

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

    If your a private tennant why not ask your landlord to pay for your home maintenance rather than you getting a loan?

    home maintenance is your landlords duty not yours.

    Check your contract and tell him to sort it out saving you £750
