Poor Credit Loans

A poor or short credit history can have an impact at the worst times, like when you need some cash for that urgent expense. At Dot Dot Loans, we understand that if you've been unsuccessful applying for credit elsewhere, it can be difficult to get a loan. In this situation, one of our poor credit loans could help you out, subject to affordability.

Below you'll find all you need to know about loans for those with poor credit.

What are poor credit loans?

When we talk about poor credit loans, we mean loans that are designed for people who have perhaps been turned away for a personal loan by their bank or other lenders because they've missed payments on credit agreements they've had in the past.

You may need to rebuild your credit history, or simply don't have enough credit history for the banks to feel comfortable lending to you.

It is possible to have poor credit but good income - you may feel that you can comfortably afford repayments on a loan but you might be held back by your lack of credit history or past difficulties.

When should I consider poor credit loans?

These loans are there for those moments where you need a little cash now, but your credit score is preventing you from taking out a personal loan from your bank or another credit provider. Whether the washing machine is on its last legs, the car's broken down or the boiler is on the blink, one of these loans could support you and ensure you can get the job done.

It's important to bear in mind that you may pay a higher interest rate on a poor credit loan, and we recommend that you carefully review your circumstances before applying for one.

Can I get poor credit loans from direct lenders?

Yes - some UK direct lenders do offer poor credit loans. Dot Dot Loans is a direct lender, which means that you'll only deal with us throughout the application process and beyond. We offer poor credit loans between £100 and £1000 to help cover a range of unexpected expenses.

To apply for a poor credit loan in the UK, you must meet our eligibility criteria.

How do poor credit loans work?
