Hiya,
I'm needing a very small loan of £10-£20
Does anybody know any loan companies that do that?
I dont have the best credit rating I have had money stolen from my home by family member and it was for baby milk and nappies
thanks

    Payday loan at extortionate rates of interest. You can usually borrow very small amounts quickly. Long term get a credit card for these emergencies.
    :footie:
    :p Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) :p Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. :p

    i doubt many companies would loan a slittle as £10-£20, can you not borrow it from friends or family?

    Your best bet for that sort of amount would to be pawn something for a short while.
    Its amazing how these banks can't even do simple calculations correctly..............

    I don't know that many do below £50, other place to try is now also the bank

    yes i agree, £20 is nothing, but to steal it from a mother that had put it to one side for her babies milk! tempted to go halves and send a tenner, but also give a beating to the thief who took it......

    Pawn something.

    No-one is going to give you a loan of £20. That's the way it is.
