Payday loans

Options
Hi,
does anyone know if there are lenders that would lend to me if i have payday loans showing on my credit?? I had used these more than a year ago and approximately 4times with a total borrowing of £500. These were paid immediately after taking the payday loan.
my credit history is good and so is my DTI, thus affordability. I am giving a a 10% depo.
thanks

    There are lenders who will consider you if you have had no pay day loans in the last 6-12 months.

    I’ve recently been approved with Halifax, I’ve had 100+ payday loans over the years but none for over 2 years at the time of approval.
