Whenever you take out a loan of any kind, lenders tend to run what is known as a credit check. This allows lenders to assess whether or not a borrower is suited to a loan – and, unfortunately, many traditional lenders will not lend money to individuals with bad credit. They may go so far as to not lend money to someone with no line of credit at all.
Thankfully, bad credit loans exist to provide loans without credit check for those who may have fallen on hard times, or who are still in the process of building a credit history. Lenders that offer loans for bad credit ratings understand that a person’s financial history should not always be held against them. Past mistakes are not necessarily a fair representation of an individual’s current ability to repay debts, either.
At Cigno, we will look to connect you with a partner that can provide a bad credit loan.
A bad credit history is typically the result of defaults on loans. A default is when an outstanding bill has not been paid within 60 days. Defaults that have since been paid can impact your credit rating.
Too many lender enquiries can damage your credit profile further, which is why a few loan applications getting rejected can spiral out of control. Some banks will not even consider lending you money if you have a certain number of recent credit enquiries.
Loans without credit checks usually rely on the borrower’s other assets, including income, employment status and existing debts to determine whether they can successfully repay the loan. Aside from this, no credit loans work exactly the same as any other personal loan: you will have repayments to make and fees to pay, and you can use the funds however you like.
