Why choose Lending Stream for a £200 Loan?
What are £200 loans?
£200 loans are small, short term loans that can be used for a variety of purposes. Perhaps you need to pay for an unexpected car repair. Or perhaps you just need some help with cash flow after some unexpected bills. Whatever the reason, a £200 loan can be useful for those small emergencies.
Most £200 loans are repaid within a few weeks or months. They usually tend to have a fairly high interest rate. So, it’s important to only borrow what you can afford to repay.

Can we lend you more than £200?
Yes, Lending Stream offers various loans to meet your financial needs. For first-time borrowers, we provide loans ranging from £50 to £800. Existing customers with a good monthly repayment history can borrow from £100 to £1,500.

How long do you have to pay back your £200 loan?
With Lending Stream, you’ve got 6 months to pay back what you borrow from us in 6 equal payments. You can even repay your loan early if you want. We don’t charge any extra fees for early repayment. Our loans are charged at a daily interest rate, so by paying early you’ll save money.
What if my £200 loan application is rejected?
We look at many different factors while checking your 200 pound loan application, which is why we never guarantee if it will be approved. We carefully assess your financial situation to ensure responsible lending.
We also check your credit score (as will all FCA-approved lenders). If a lender offers you a £200 loan with no credit check, then you should check that they are an FCA authorised lender. Lending Stream consider applications from people with a bad credit score too.
We consider many factors, as we don’t want you to borrow money that you can’t afford to pay back. Additionally, your approved credit limit (loan amount) depends on your assessed ability to manage the monthly repayments.
Sometimes, we reject loan applications because of information we receive from credit reference agencies.
If this is the case with your application, we will let you know the name of the credit reference agency by mail.
What are the advantages of a £200 loan?
- Fast cash: If you are facing unexpected expenses, a £200 loan could be a short-term solution. If approved, you’ll usually get the cash in your bank within 90 seconds*.
- No asset required: When you apply for a 200 pound loan with us, we won’t ask for assets as security or guarantors like a secured loan lender. We offer unsecured loans for unexpected financial emergencies.
- You may be eligible for a £200 loan with bad credit: We never pretend that your credit history isn’t important to us. But we also know that your credit score will not always reflect your current situation. We consider all applications including those where people may have a poor or low credit score.
- Repay in affordable amounts: We provide loans that are paid back in 6 monthly repayments. Our loans are not like payday loans which require you to pay it back all at once.
What are the disadvantages of £200 loans?
- Short term loans for £200 may have a higher interest rate than a traditional high street bank.
- Is a 200 pound loan what you need? Think carefully about whether this is the right amount to borrow to meet your needs.
