    Hi All,

    I'm looking to assist a friend with bad credit rating. My credit rating is good.

    Its all about the credit history and not the rating that you yourself can see.

    OP so your able to take on the extra monthly payments if your friend fails to pay.
    Is he likely to take the money and disappear ?
  • OP dont do it full stop.

    You will end up repaying the lot, and lose the friend too. That is a near certainty!
    Life's a gamble, be lucky!
