How is Drafty an alternative to a £600 loan?

Drafty offers an alternative to £600 loans in several ways:
  1. Credit and affordability checks: We assess your creditworthiness and affordability to ensure that any borrowing aligns with your financial capacity. This ensures you are not taking on more debt than you can handle.
  2. Flexible credit line: Upon approval, we provide you with a credit line, allowing you the flexibility to borrow funds up to a specified credit limit. This distinguishes us from payday loans and other traditional loans, as it enables you to borrow varying amounts based on your unique needs. Rather than being restricted to a fixed loan amount.
  3. Flexible repayment terms: You can make minimum payments or pay off the balance in full, depending on what works best for your financial situation. This flexibility allows you to manage your repayments in a way that suits your budget and cash flow.
  4. Quick access to funds: If you need to borrow money on the same day, Drafty may be able to help. Once approved, you could get your line of credit sent to your bank within 90 seconds.

How do £600 loans work?

A £600 loan usually serves as a short term loan which you can take to address unexpected expenses. For this, you’ll have to apply, which can be done online or in person with a lender. In this application you provide personal and financial information, with other factors such as credit history and income considered to assess eligibility.

If approved, you'll receive the terms and conditions of the loan. Subject to repayment terms, you’ll repay the loan within a short period of time in equal monthly repayments.

At Drafty, we offer a better alternative. We offer a line of credit. If you're approved for a line of credit, you’ll get an account with a credit limit. From here, you can transfer money from your Drafty account to your bank account anytime within your agreed credit limit.

What can I use a 600 pound loan for?

£600 loans can be used for various purposes, including:

  1. Unexpected expenses: For example, medical expenses, home repairs, legal fees, or unexpected bills.
  2. Home improvements: If you need to make urgent repairs or renovations to your home, a loan can help you cover the costs.
  3. Repairs: If your vehicle breaks down or you need to buy spare parts quickly.
  4. Bridge financial gaps: Sometimes, there might be a temporary gap between expenses and income, and a small loan can help you manage until your next payday.

At Drafty, we ask you why you need our line of credit. Usually, our customers use it in the same way they would a short term loan. This could be to cover an unexpected expense. For example, car repairs, dealing with a boiler breakdown, or a sudden, unexpected bill.

Can I get more than £600?

The terms and conditions of your chosen lender will determine the borrowing limit. But if you need more than £600, Drafty could help. You could borrow between £50 and £3,000 (based on approval). Plus, you have the flexibility to reuse your credit line up to the approved limit without the need to reapply, as long as you make all your repayments on time, and your account remains in good standing.

How long can I borrow a £600 loan for?

How long you can borrow a £600 loan and loan repayments will depend on the specific terms offered by your chosen lender. That said, with a Drafty credit line, there is no set minimum or maximum repayment term, as long as the minimum monthly repayments are met. Plus, you have the flexibility to repay your line of credit early without fees, allowing you to save on interest.

Can I get a £600 loan with bad credit?

Yes, it may be possible to get a £600 loan even if you have a bad credit score or poor credit history. There are direct lenders, like Drafty, that will consider lending to those with less-than-perfect credit scores.

If you choose to apply for a line of credit with Drafty, we'll consider your personal circumstances to ensure you can afford your repayments before accepting you. We consider more than just your credit file, so there's a chance you could still be approved for our credit line, even with a low credit score.

FAQs - £600 loan

Can I get a £600 loan with no credit check?

We advise you to not take a loan from any lender who offers a loan with no credit check. All FCA-regulated direct lenders need to perform a credit check as part of the loan application process. This practice is in place to prioritise responsible lending and ensure a thorough assessment of each application.

Can I get a 600 pound loan on the same day?

It may be possible to get a £600 loan on the same day. However, the ease and speed of getting a loan will depend on the lender's policies, the type of loan, and the checks they perform.
