Declined Credit

There are many reasons why a creditor could have turned you down. You may have too many debts to pass the credit scoring check or your personal information on your credit report is incorrect. If you are declined credit, lenders should tell you the main reason why you were turned down.

Whether it was because of your credit score that was based on your credit report then you should ask the lender for the name and the address of the credit reference agency.

With the information you obtain from the lender you can then check your credit report for yourself to ensure the information listed on the report is correct. The best things to do is to obtain a copy of your report before you apply for a personal loan and check the results of the information for yourself and check for any mistakes.

If you review your application after the loan was declined, then you can check the report to help you establish why your application was declined.

Once you have discovered the reason behind the declined application, whether it is due to incorrect information or too much credit, you will want to resolve the issue right away. If you have been declined, you will not want to make repeated applications until you search your report and find the reason behind your declined application and resolve it.

If you have no resolved the issue it may be harder for you to receive a loan the more declined applications you receive.
