Personal loans are available even if you have bad credit. The issue most people with bad credit have is that they are afraid of getting rejected by the big banks like FNB and Absa when they apply for personal loans.
The good news is that banks are not the be all and end all of creditors, other institutions also provide loans for people with bad credit. These independent companies are also registered credit providers and help people with personal loans. A quick search on the internet reveals countless number of credit providers willing to help.
What help is there for people with bad credit records?
You can put through an online loan application for people with bad credit and get a reply within the same day. They will assess your credit score and see how much you qualify for. The qualification is often stringent as they will have to assess your expenses as per NCR’s rules.

How much do you qualify to get a personal loan for?
You can get as much as R 200,000 if you can show you are able to qualify for the personal loan. It also can be as little as R 1,000 if that will help you through the month. It also depends on the reason you give for requesting the loan.
