Can I get a £300 loan with bad credit?
Yes, it is possible to get a £300 loan with bad credit. Some direct lenders consider more than just your credit score when assessing your application. They may review your overall financial standing, including your income and ability to make monthly repayments.
We understand not everyone has a perfect credit history. At Drafty, we look beyond your credit rating. So, there’s a chance you could be approved for our credit line even with a bad credit score or poor credit history. We use a soft credit check to assess your eligibility without impacting your credit rating. A hard credit check is only added to your credit file when you take out the line of credit. If approved for Drafty’s line of credit, you can withdraw the 300 pounds immediately. We’ll send the money to your bank within 90 seconds*.
What should I do if my £300 loan application is rejected?
If you’ve been rejected for credit, understanding why is important. It may help you make positive changes.
You can contact the lender to ask for the details of the credit reference agency that assessed your application.
Obtain a copy of your credit report and go through your credit history. Identify any errors or negative factors impacting your credit score.
If your credit score is on the lower side or you have a bad credit score, take steps to improve it. This could involve settling existing debts, ensuring timely payments, and making sure you are registered on the electoral roll. Boosting your credit score enhances your chances of future loan approvals.
Consider seeking advice from a financial advisor or a money advice service. They can offer insights on managing finances, explore alternative options, and provide support during challenging periods.
FAQs – £300 Loan
Does Drafty run a hard credit check?
Drafty runs a soft credit check during the initial application process. This allows us to assess your eligibility for a line of credit without affecting your credit score. If your application is approved and you decide to borrow, a hard check may be performed.
Can I borrow more than 300 pounds from Drafty?
Yes, Drafty offers a flexible line of credit which allows you withdraw what you need within your credit limit (Maximum £3000, minimum withdrawal £50 in the first instance and £100 thereafter if credit limit allows). If approved, money from the line of credit can be sent to your bank in just 90 seconds*. You can then use only the amount you need and only pay interest on what you use. You can even repay early without any extra fees and save money on interest.
Can a £300 loan improve my credit rating?
Yes, a £300 loan may help improve your credit rating when managed responsibly. By making timely monthly repayments and avoiding late payments, you show lenders and credit reference agencies you are a reliable borrower. Over time, this builds a positive credit history and can boost your credit score. Also, improving your chances of being approved for loans in the future.
Can I get a £300 loan with no credit check?
No, it’s unlikely to get a £300 loan without any credit check. All FCA-regulated direct lenders are required to conduct affordability and credit worthiness checks as part of the loan application process. This ensures responsible lending practices and a thorough assessment of each application. Avoid lenders offering loans with no checks, as they may have hidden fees or unclear terms that may worsen your financial situation.
Please think carefully about whether Drafty is the right solution for you. This is even more important if you're in financial difficulty. If we don't think you can afford to repay your credit, we won't be able to approve you. We'll look at your current finances and credit history before we decide whether to give you credit. Failure to repay could impact your credit file.
