    can anyone help me

    I desperately need to raise around £8000 by sunday of this week. Have tried applying for loans, but thanks to my darling ex husband, my credit rating would not allow credit for even 20pence!!! Have also slogged my guts out on online business plans and have earnt peanuts. It is now getting to desperation stakes as I cant provide the secure upbringing that my children desrve. Does anyone out there know of anything at all I can do that will raise the needed funds? Or if there are any companies that would lend me the funds despite my situation? Many thanks

        Tried zopa, but as yet unable to borrow due to my credit score, so would really appreciate if anyone out there has any other ideas too.

          I am not sure what £8000 equals out to in US dollars, howevr, what about selling some things that you really don't need but could get a few dollars for?
          Good luck

            I ran it through on online currency converter. The need is for $14,875. I am sorry, but I know no way to get that kind of money in so short a time.

              The best way to handle a need that size in 48 hours is to

              a) call whomever it needs to go to and get an extension
              b) talk to your local church about the need

              Not sure I have a lot of ideas for THAT short a term.

                I know it is possible to raise the funds with low interest, but that would involve going to school again. Student loans are usually the easiest to acquire and with the lowest interest, but that would involve going to college or grad school....something that you might never want to consider.

                  try a secondary loan company.. like home financial, city financial... look in yellow pages of your local phone book.

                    Wow that is a lot of money that is needed. Do you have a car you can sell or other things?

                    You ae probably not going to get into loan for that amount with a poor credit rating.
