Whatever your reason is for seeking a loan for £4,000, it’s important not to panic and accept the first offer you get; it might not be the right deal for you!

How can I use a £4000 loan?

Whilst you can use the money any way you wish, it’s important that you use it responsibly. A loan for this amount is usually used to cover emergency costs, a small home improvement such as new windows or bathroom tiles or to buy a reliable used car.

It’s important that we understand your reason for borrowing in order to get a better idea of your application. Taking out a loan is a financial commitment and shouldn’t be taken lightly, therefore it is vitally important to do your research about each lender and know exactly how much you can afford to take out and repay in monthly instalments, with interest.

You can try our budget planner and loan calculator to give you a better idea of your financial situation before you consider applying for a £4,000 loan.

A guide to your £4,000 unsecured loan

An unsecured loan simply means that your loan is not secured against any asset such as your car or house, so if you fail to keep up with your monthly repayments your assets will be safe, however you will risk lowering your credit score if you are unable to keep up with them and could cost you in fees, depending on the lender. Any missed or late repayments on a 118 118 loan will incur a £12 charge.

Luckily, at 118 118 Money we will always consider whether you’ll be able to comfortably afford the fixed monthly repayments before offering you a loan. Whilst some lenders only look at your credit profile, we look beyond it and review each application carefully.

We understand that it can be difficult to get credit from the banks and other lenders if you have less than perfect credit, which is why at 118 118 Money we are here to offer an alternative solution. Our unsecured personal loans can be repaid in 12, 18, 24, 30 or 36 month fixed repayments, so you’ll know exactly how much you’ll pay back each month.
