Tenant Loans

Are there any companies that aren't rip off merchants?

I got approved for Yes loans, but seeing not a single good thing about them and hearing about their admin fee I don't think I'll be wasting my money on that.

I need a tenant loan of £2000-3000 which I plan to pay off within 2-3 years. Has anyone seen any that aren't just scams?

    what IS a tenant loan ?

    Ok I just googled , its a bog standard unsecured loan.

    googling tenant loan shows the real niche lenders, those who charge sky high APR and will take anyone on

    What do you need the money for? How much did you want to borrow?

    I need the money to consolidate some debts and sort out my 2 month rent arrears. I've been looking for one that'll loan £1000 as then that would help cover the most important issue, though anything more would be a bonus.

    When I searched the one that came up top was Yes loans, but there isn't a single good review of them anywhere so I'm very wary of going any further with that company.

    It's a loan that would be easily repayed back as I'll have a regular income from July, but I really want to take the stress off now by repaying via a loan before it gets out of hand. The interest isn't an issue to me, I take that as my punishment for messing up.

    why dont you just come over to the debt free wannabee board and we can help you sort all this mess out?

    Consolidation never works.

    Plus if you dont have a regualr job now, i doubt anyone would give you a loan

    Are you not getting housing benefit for your rent then if you are not working?
