You can use a one year loan for whatever purpose you choose. But as with any loan you will pay back more than you borrow, so you should be certain you need the money before applying. Examples of things you could use a 12 month loan for include a car or bicycle purchase, necessary home improvements such as a new oven or washing machine, or to fix a broken boiler. Ultimately, it is your choice. The lender will just want to be confident you have the means to repay the loan before approving your application.
No, any application for credit, whether a loan, a mortgage, a credit card, or even a current account with an overdraft facility, will involve a credit check from the product provider. If you’re concerned you have a low credit score that might mean your application is rejected or that you won’t be offered the best terms, you can take steps to improve your credit rating.
Yes, just as with any other borrowing, as long as you pass the lender’s affordability checks you can get a 12 month loan with no guarantor. If you have a poor credit rating or no credit rating and feel you need a guarantor, there are specialist guarantor loans available.
