I need arround 15k loan to buy my dream car and pay off c.card balance - around 4k.(i had a lovely time of spending it:) ) ive been registered on electoral roll over a month ago.

    Lloyds have strict terms. they wouldn`t even lent me £1000, with my £13k salary. So tried RBS and they accepted me no problems... worth shopping around !

  • so i shouldn't be rejcted? thanks for answer
  • Troll alert again??

    Anyway I don't think you have a hope in hell of getting a loan for that amount on what you have written so far.
  • so what sort of amount i can expect to be accepted??
  • Nil would be my top estimate.
  • why what's the reason??
  • £4k debt, only just on electoral roll, missed payment, renting - how's that for starters.
  • what should i do? help
  • Wait until you have been in UK for 3 years.
    You say that you earn £23k a year and only pay £250 pm rent so how much surplus funds do you have and why do you have a £4k credit card debt?
  • ive been living at the same address for over 3,5 yrs. ive been spending a lot and i enojyed that... one time... now i want to change direction get a better car... i got saving account... im going to leave about 200-300 pounds a month there and still i will be able to pay 350-400 pounds for loan... i need diesel car as i got petrol now and it cost me over 50 a week... silly... so please give me advice... by the way thanks for your patience if im wrong...
