How to Get A Loan If the Bank Says No
Unfortunately, banks can be extremely selective about who they agree to lend to. In some cases, this can result in those in need turning to loan sharks who charge them incredibly high interest rates. It’s a broken system, and that’s where we come in. Here at Crester Credit, we are willing to give people a chance – and we don’t charge them the earth in interest and fees.
Why Banks Say No
Banks can reject your application for a loan for any number of reasons. Here are some of the most common ones which can affect you getting a loan approved.
Credit Score
Having a good credit score can get you far with the major banks. If you don’t have such a great track record with your credit score, this can be a deal-breaker for many banks. You may have failed to make some payments in the past due to hardship, unexpected expenses, or something else. However, banks don’t tend to ask why you couldn’t pay your loan, they will just reject your application.
Other Debt
Depending on how much other debt you already have, a bank may reject your loan application. This is unfair to those of you who can realistically afford to pay off both loans in a reasonable time frame. So, if you already have a mortgage, car loan, or any other type of loan, a bank might decline your application right away.
Employment Status
If you’re not employed and instead are on a sickness benefit or job seekers benefit, a bank might refuse to offer you a loan. For people in this situation, it can be extremely tricky. You have unexpected expenses, just like everyone else. The difference is that you may not have had the chance to save up money to tuck away for a rainy day. So, without a loan, how can you pay these bills? Banks may even deny a loan application simply because you haven’t been at your job for that long, even though you are gainfully employed.
The Crester Difference
Don’t lose hope – banks are not the only place that you can borrow money from without paying a ton of fees and interest. Crester Credit is here to help. Here’s why we are different from the standard financial institutions.
We Believe in Second Chances
Bad credit score? Shaky history for repaying loans? We understand that people change, and situations evolve all the time. That’s why we are willing to offer a second chance to those who have not had the best record in the past with repaying their debts. If you have turned your financial habits around and are now committed to making payments on time and getting on top of your debt, then we want to help.
We Treat You as A Person, Not a Number
Sometimes banks don’t try to fully understand your financial situation. Maybe you have some collateral you are planning on selling to help pay off your debt. Maybe you’re on a benefit but have figured out that you can afford to pay off $50 a week so that you can have a car to drive your kids to school. Rather than having a checklist where we tick off what you do or don’t meet, our helpful staff will call and ask you questions about your financial situation. We only offer loans at amounts that we think you can realistically afford to pay back.
No Red Tape
The last thing you need when you require a loan is to deal with all of the red tape that can go along with it. Mountains of paperwork, ID that needs to be sighted in person, waiting weeks for the money to come through – we have done away with all of that. Instead, we offer completely digital loans that can be set up and signed online. Once you get approved, the money could be in your account within 24 hours, depending on your bank. We’re not here to make it hard for you to get a loan, instead we make the process simpler.
