The interest rate or APR you can get. This will usually depend on your credit score – the higher your credit rating the lower your interest rate

Can I get a 30000 loan with bad credit?
While it may not be impossible to get a very large loan even if you’ve got a low credit score it is likely to be much more difficult. Lenders are unlikely to loan you £30,000 – even on a secured loan - if your credit file shows you have a history of missed repayments and debt problems.
That said it will often still be possible to borrow. Bear in mind...
If you have bad credit look at ways to start building your credit score – as this will unlock better loan deals in future.

We’ll need to know a bit about you and your finances. For secured loans register yourself as a homeowner in the search
We’ll show you loans you’re eligible for from leading providers across the market
You’ll be able to sort loans by the overall cost and the likelihood you’ll be accepted
APR, or your Annual Percentage Rate, is the interest rate at which you pay back money you’ve borrowed. It takes into account the actual interest rate you pay, plus any other fees or charges involved in the deal, to give you a more complete picture of what you loan will cost.
When you see a rate advertised as the representative APR, this means the lender is required to offer this rate to at least 51% of applicants – however it doesn’t mean you’re guaranteed to receive this interest rate yourself.
A’ soft’ credit search or soft-application is a way of finding out where you stand in terms of getting a loan without leaving a mark on your credit report. It’s a useful way of finding a loan you’ll be eligible for without harming your chances of being accepted.
You can take out a £30,000 loan for a number of reasons, such as home improvements or funding education to big purchases like buying a car, a caravan or a boat, for example. However, it’s unlikely you’ll be approved for a loan to cover your day-to-day living costs. For secured loans it is likely you'll only be able to borrow for either home improvements or debt consolidation.
To borrow a large sum of money such as £30,000 at a competitive interest rate you will usually need a good to excellent credit rating. If your credit score is poor you may have to accept borrowing less and paying a higher interest rate. It could be worth taking some time to build up your credit score. By growing your score over time you’ll unlock lower borrowing rates for loans, credit cards and mortgages.
You will usually be able to pay off some or all of your loan early if you want to – but the lender could impose an early redemption penalty charge.
How quickly you’ll receive your loan will depend on the lender. But once you’ve been accepted and approved for your £30,000 loan, the money could be with you very quickly – and usually within a couple of days.
If you’re struggling with your finances and you think you might not be able to make your repayments, you should call your lender as soon as possible – they may be able to help you work out an easier repayment plan by restructuring the loan, or a repayment holiday.
If you don’t let your loan provider know and your miss a repayment you could be hit with steep penalty fees and interest – and it is likely to negatively affect your credit score.
