£1,000 loan from Dot Dot Loans

A short-term £1,000 loan from a direct lender like us is there to help if you need funds immediately. It can be used to cover things like repair costs or out-of-the-blue bills.

According to price comparison site, Finder.com, a third of us have less than £1,500 in savings and 15% of us have no savings at all. If this applies to you, getting a £1,000 loan online from us can be the short-term solution that will bridge the gap in your finances.

It can be used to:

• pay for repairs in the home, such as fixing the boiler or washing machine
• cover repairs to your vehicle, as well as MOTs and servicing
• cover unexpected costs such as insurance renewals

Sometimes a few of these things can happen at once. It can be mid-month; you've paid the bills and you're short on cash. A broken boiler or a replacement fan belt are the last thing you need - and a combination of the two at once can be really unhelpful. But these are emergencies that can't wait. Whatever has happened, a quick £1,000 loan might be an option.

If you need to borrow a quick £1,000 loan, you'll find that there are usually two options available: short-term loans and payday loans. Before you go ahead and take out the loan, it's worth knowing what each of these offers.

Like short-term loans, payday loans lend you a small amount of cash that you need to pay back in full and can be useful if you're in a tight spot with your finances. Both get you access to money quickly. But, unlike short-term loans, the payday option needs to be settled fast - usually when you're next paid. They also come with high interest rates and fees for late payment, so there's a chance that you can find yourself in more debt if you can't keep up.

A short-term loan can be the better option. While this also lets you access cash quickly to cover unexpected costs, you can manage the repayments over time. Plus, if you choose our short-term £1,000 loan, you won't be charged late payment fees.

To give you added peace of mind, all our loans are unsecured. This means we'll never expect you to offer your home or other assets as a form of security. And we don't ask you to find a guarantor, either.

Applying online for a £1,000 personal loan with us is simple and straightforward. You can apply in minutes and get a quick initial decision.

Begin by using our short-term loan calculator. This will show you the repayment terms when you get a £1,000 loan with us, along with the total cost. There are no hidden fees or extra charges down the line - we don't believe in late payment fees. Here's what you need to know:

We take our responsibilities as a lender very seriously. This is why we carry out credit and affordability checks to make sure you can afford your chosen loan. So, when you apply for a £1,000 loan - or any loan - with us, you don't necessarily need a perfect credit history, but we will always check that you'll be able to manage your repayments.

We make sure that we look at more than just your credit score, however. We factor in things like your income and outgoings, as well as your employment status. This is because we know that having a poor credit history isn't the full picture.

We want to make sure that our £1,000 loans are accessible to you when you need it most. That's why, as a responsible lender, we set out the criteria so you can easily see if you're eligible. The criteria for this type of short-term loan is:

• You're aged 18 or over
• You live in the UK and can give us an address
• You can provide us with a phone number and email address
• You can give us your bank and debit card details

We'll also look at your credit history and finances before making our decision.
