15% deposit- Payday loan present

Hi,
does anyone know of any mortgage lenders which would provide me with a mortgage if i give a 15% deposit even though i have used payday loans in the past. The most recent payday loan was cleared in october 2020. 
Me and my partner had used payday loan 3 times over the last 2years but nothing in the last 6-7months plus all cleared October 2020 (Only small amounts borrowed of £50-£200).
many thanks,

    Why do you not pick a broker and let them do all the legwork for you? They will look at your credit reports, have a detailed fact find and match you to the right lender for your circumstances. 

    You've been trying for a while, various different deposit amounts and don't appear to be any further forward.
    Mortgage started 2020, aiming to clear 31/12/2029.

    @bobthebuildercanyoufixit There are lenders who will consider lending with 6 months clear of pdl. But no one can say that they WILL lend to you as that will be based on the rest of the scenario as well. I would recommend getting in touch with an experienced broker who can look at it and give you a realistic view of your options.
