If you have a low income, you may have found it hard to get a personal loan. This is because lenders want to make sure that you can meet the repayments on a loan, and that the payments are affordable. If you miss payments on a loan, this is known as a default, and could give you a bad credit record. That is why it is especially important to make sure that you can afford to meet the repayments.
Remember, although you may feel you can afford the payments now, your situation may change due to unexpected emergencies, such as higher than anticipated gas or electric bills. It is also worth thinking about what would happen if your income reduced further by having shorter hours, or losing your job.
At 1st Loan, we work with brokers who specialise in loans for people who have a low income, although the terms of the loan will depend on your circumstances. You can apply for a loan from £50 up to a maximum of £25,000. You can apply for a loan today even if you have a bad credit record. Loans are available to people such as self employed or young people aged 18, 19, 20, 21 and over.
There are various types of loans available to people on a low income, such as personal or unsecured loans, payday loans or short-term loans. You must always check with the broker that the payments are affordable before you take out the loan; this is even more important when your earnings are low.
You need to complete the short application form to find out how much a loan will cost you.
