UK Credit is a direct lender (not a broker) serving people who may have struggled with finances before and find it hard to get a loan on the high street. To apply, both you and your guarantor must be homeowners, and your guarantor will need to have a good credit history.

A guarantor loan has the extra security of a second person agreeing to pay any unpaid balance on the monthly repayments. This means that even people with a very low credit score could get access to a loan, and you could even improve your credit rating if they make all repayments on time.

UK Credit’s rates are tailored to the applicants, and may vary from the advertised representative APR (which we use in the calculator above), however you can get a personalised quick quote with no impact on your credit rating at UK Credit’s site.
The loans don’t come with “application” or “product” fees, and because the interest rates are fixed, you’ll always pay the same each month, from the first to the last.
UK Credit doesn’t charge anything for overpayments of up to three times the regular payment. Overpaying will will shorten your loan term, rather than reducing the size of the monthly payments.
UK Credit will consider people with very bad credit ratings, CCJs and past bankruptcies, however all applicants must:
