Hi does anyone know where I can get a short term loan for �1,500, I have a default payment on my credit history that wasn't even my fault but no one will touch me.

I need it for a holiday but need it within 2 weeks, I live with my mum and dad so can easily pay it back within a few months.

Does anyone know who could help?

Hiya, my advice would be if you can easily pay it back in "a few" months, then just save up for a few months and then go on holiday

Hi

unfortunately its not an option i go on holiday in 2 weeks! its already booked!
you booked a holiday without having the funds to pay for it?

looks like a loan shark is your only option.

(I am joking, of course!)

Hi i didnt book it i am replacing someone, just need to see if anyone knows of anyone is all?
can the person youre replacing pay it and you reimburse them?
have you asked your parents?
well i know this is not very helpful, but if you can't afford it, just don't go! It's the best way

Hi

my mum and dad would normally lend it to me but they can't at surch short notice and the person will repay me but not before i go so this is the only option really will be gutted if i can't go!! I am sure I will find a way!
You could ask your bank.
Having a default doesn't mean they wont lend.
I suppose it depends how much it was for,when it was and if you repaid it.

I haven't got a clue what it is or for how much i think it may have been a contract phone i took out that didn't work i had endless hassle with three!!

my bank said it was because i defaulted why would they make that up?
Longer term, you need to get a copy of your credit report and find out what the problem is, then recify it!

Yeah I mean i definately will sort it but in the meantime i need one in 2 weeks, i have just spoke to a cash lender so hopefully it will be sorted yay!
If you cane asily afford to pay it back within a few months you should have easily been able to build up savings previously... but as you haven't been able to build up any savings then I don't see how you can be sure you will easily pay back any loan. My advice would be sort your alleged debt out, build up quite a cushion in terms of savings- then think about splashing out on a holiday.
Well done on finding potential lender... but I guess you'll have quite a fee / interest rate to pay. I just hope you can soon clear your debts and start to build up savings... and think about a pension before you splash out on other things you can't afford. You may need a mortgage one day, too.
