New Loan

Hi All


I have recently took out a loan for £1500 with my bank but have now discovered that I am going to need another £1500 to complete the work needed at home.


How badly will it affect my credit score if I consolidate and get a new loan of an additional £1500?


Help/Advice greatly appreciated.


Cheers
Louis

    Lenders will view your current debts, income and credit history and make a call from there.

    Anything it does to your actual credit score is neither here nor there.

    Just take out another loan then, or credit card.
