If you have bad credit, you need to approach a specialist lender that deals with bad credit or adverse credit customers. Each provider has different criteria so you need to have a good idea why you would be considered a bad credit risk by mainstream lenders.

If you have declared bankruptcy recently, then even adverse credit lenders may refuse an application; it's best to wait about 6 months. There may also be information on your credit record that is old or out-of-date: correcting this may improve your credit score and help your application. Re-applying after recent credit refusals is also a bad idea - give it a month after your last application before trying again.

If you have no credit record, then ensuring you are registered on the local electoral role is the biggest step to getting accepted, as this provides an address where the credit agencies can trace you.

The bad credit lenders have more generous acceptance criteria for applications, the downside is that you will pay more through higher interest charges and have a lower credit limit, at least to begin with.
