If you are considering making home improvements, purchasing a new car, or consolidating you debts, an unsecured loan could be a sensible answer. These loans let you avail money without putting forth any of your valuable assets like your home as collateral. Stats show that the popularity and demand of these borrowing options have increased considerably over the past few years. Less risk involved and quick processing and disbursal are the major reasons for the same.

Unsecured loans come with a plethora of advantages. They are far better than credit cards, store cards and overdraft facilities. These facilities would cost you too heavily because they invite very high rate of interest. And unsecured loans attract lower APR in comparison to them. So, these loans come out to be better funding options. Moreover, there is a limit to the amount you can fetch from your credit/ store card or overdraft facility. An unsecured loan would get you a far greater amount (anything that ranges from £500 to £25,000).


An unsecured loan is granted by the lender on the basis of the borrower's capacity and character to repay. The past repayment records, personal circumstances, job and home status, and foremost, the credit score of the borrower matter a lot in case of unsecured loans. This helps in judging the creditworthiness of the borrower. The lender feels assured that his money will come back to him if the borrower has a good credit score. Credit score works in place of security in giving lender the necessary comfort in granting money to the borrower.

But, what if you have a less than perfect credit score? What if your credit report is marked with missed payments, arrears, defaults and the like? What if you have a CCJ against your name or have been declared a bankrupt in the past? Do you still have chances of getting yourself an unsecured loan? The answer is yes. As it is said, if there are 50 locks then there are 100 keys to it. So, even if you have bad credit score, you have chances of getting an unsecured loan from a sub-prime lender.
