Can you get a personal loan with bad credit?
Absolutely. At People Driven Credit Union, we look beyond your credit score to find a solution that fits your unique needs, considering both your income and credit history.
If approved, you’ll receive funds deposited directly into your checking or savings account. Keep in mind that interest rates are determined by your credit rating.
Frequently Asked Questions
A personal loan can impact your credit score in several ways:
- Positive Impact: Making on-time payments can improve your credit score.
- Negative Impact: Missing payments or defaulting on the loan can harm your credit score. Additionally, applying for a loan results in a hard inquiry, which may temporarily lower your score.
Personal loans can be used for a variety of purposes, including:
- Debt consolidation
- Home improvements
- Medical expenses
- Major purchases (e.g., appliances, electronics)
- Special events (e.g., weddings, vacations)
- Emergency expenses
- Secured Personal Loan: Requires collateral (e.g., a car or savings account). Offers lower interest rates due to reduced risk for the lender.
- Unsecured Personal Loan: Does not require collateral. The interest rate is based on your creditworthiness and may be higher than secured loans.
