Key features of NatWest personal loans

NatWest personal loans are unsecured, meaning you do not need to provide an asset as security against the loan. Instead, your rate will be based on your personal credit rating. While NatWest’s rates are normally competitive, the representative APR may not be the rate you’ll receive: NatWest will offer you a rate based on assessment of your personal financial circumstances.

Unfortunately, NatWest loans are only available to existing customers who have had another NatWest product for at least 3 to 6 months. However if that’s you, you could get approved for a loan online within minutes and receive your funds the following day if you use online banking.

If you’re getting a loan to make home improvements, you can choose a loan term up to ten years.

Am I eligible for a NatWest personal loan?

You should only apply for a NatWest personal loan if you’re certain you can make your repayments, and you meet the following criteria:

  • You must be aged 18 or over.
  • You must be a UK resident.
  • You must have had either a NatWest current account for 3 months, or a NatWest credit card or mortgage for 6 months.
  • You must not have been declared bankruptcy in the last 6 years.
  • Your loan request must be for an acceptable purpose. Check online for NatWest’s unacceptable loan purposes.

What credit score do I need to get a NatWest loan?

NatWest typically offers loans to applicants with high credit scores. It's important to note that your credit record is just one factor that NatWest considers. However, if you don't have a high credit score, you're very unlikely to get approved for a NatWest loan.

A "Good" or "Excellent" credit rating would require a score of 881 or higher if you're referring to Experian's scale, 531 or higher if you're referring to Equifax's scale and 604 or higher if you're referring to TransUnion's scale.

Do NatWest loans give an instant decision?

Yes, NatWest offers instant decisions online in most cases. (Occasionally, more information may be required.) First, you can use the soft-search eligibility checker to find out your chances of getting approved. (This won't affect your credit score.) Then, if you opt to go ahead and apply, you'll get an instant answer. NatWest can also offer same-day funding of your loan.

Can I get a second NatWest loan?

Yes, NatWest allows you to have more than one loan running at the same time. Each application for credit will be considered on its own merit. Alternatively, NatWest also allows you to effectively "top up" your loan by closing your current loan and starting a new, larger loan.

How do I apply?

If you've decided that a personal loan from is right for you, you can head over to 's website to apply. Completing the secure online application form usually takes about 15 minutes. Before you apply, check that you meet the eligibility requirements and have the information and documents you'll need to make the process as straightforward as possible.

  1. Start your application.
    Use NatWest’s “Quick Quote” tool to see if you’re likely to be approved for a loan, and what you’ll need to pay. You can then click “Ready to apply” to begin your loan application.
  2. Get a decision.
    Once you’ve completed your application, you should find out if you’ve been approved within a couple of minutes.
  3. Receive your funds.
    You’ll receive your funds the next day, provided you use NatWest online banking and apply before 5.55pm between Monday to Thursday.

We show offers we can track - that's not every product on the market...yet. Unless we've said otherwise, products are in no particular order. The terms "best", "top", "cheap" (and variations of these) aren't ratings, though we always explain what's great about a product when we highlight it. This is subject to our terms of use. When you make major financial decisions, consider getting independent financial advice. Always consider your own circumstances when you compare products so you get what's right for you.
