Many people become overwhelmed at the thought of taking out a loan. After all, there’s an extensive application process, long wait time and confusing terms and conditions, right? While this can certainly be the case with some lenders, it’s not true at City Finance.

Plus, we outline any fees and charges clearly, so that you’re never hit with any unexpected costs.
At City Finance we focus on loans, and loans only, so we’ve worked hard to streamline our borrowing process and make it as quick and simple as possible. In fact, it’s as easy as 1, 2, 3, as you can see below.

Is a Credit Check Required for a $2500 Personal Loan?
Yes, we run credit checks for all of our customers. However, if you have a less than perfect credit score, there’s still a good chance we can approve your loan.
If you’re not familiar with exactly what a credit check is, let us break down the basics.
A credit score is a figure that’s produced from a credit check that’s run by lenders for potential new clients. Each person has a credit score (unless they’ve never borrowed money before), and this figure reflects whether the person is high risk (low credit score) or low risk (high credit score), to meet their repayments on time and pay back the amount they borrowed from the financial institution.
If a person has had late or missed payments in the past, their score will be dragged down. If a person has a good history of meeting their payments on time, and paying off loans in full, then they will have a higher credit score. Some banks automatically decline a loan if an applicant’s score is below a certain number.
In Australia, credit scores sit between zero (being the lowest possible score) and 1000 (being the highest). The below credit rating key gives an indication of how credit scores are judged:
0 – 549: Very Poor
550 – 624: Poor
625 – 699: Fair
700 – 799: Good
800 – 1000: Excellent
While we do run credit checks for all customers, we can often approve loans to customers with a poor or bad credit score.
Will You Consider Applications from People with Bad Credit?
A small personal loan can be used for basically anything, but here are some examples of why you may need one.
Emergencies
At some time or another, almost everyone will face an emergency expense that they need to pay immediately. Whether this matter is medical, a home emergency or an overly high utility bill, some things just can’t wait. If you’re faced with a bill or cost that you can’t afford, you can take out a cash loan with us and pay the balance back gradually.

Dental Loans
Visiting the dentist is expensive and, frankly, not very enjoyable! However, it’s a responsibility that no-one should ignore. Don’t let your oral health decline because the bills exceed your budget. Instead, take out a quick personal loan with us and ensure you teeth and mouth are in good health.

Weekend loans
Life can get busy and stressful, so it’s important to occasionally take time out for yourself to relax and have fun. If you can’t remember the last time you did something you enjoy, then you’re probably well overdue! If it’s money matters that are stopping you from enjoying yourself, then why not take out a personal loan with us and let your hair down?
Gap bridging loans
Perhaps you’ve spent months – or even years – saving an intended amount for a big ticket item, only to realise that you’ll need additional extras in order to experience maximum enjoyment from it. For example, you may have been saving for a car, but when you purchase it, the sound system is far from perfect. Reward yourself for your hard work and take out a personal loan to cover the cost of a good stereo.

Wedding loans
Weddings can be expensive, and more often than not, there are many last minute costs that may exceed your planned budget. Rather than compromising on your special day, why not take out a quick personal loan to cover those extra costs, and make your day perfect. To do so, you can take out a personal loan with us and pay the amount back in installments, as you can afford it, and while you bask in your premarital glow.

Car accident loans
Whether you’ve been injured in a car accident, or your car has accrued some damage, both situations will often require a considerable sum of money. Whichever situation you find yourself in from a car accident, a loan from City Finance can help pay the expense, and get either you – or your car – looked after quickly.
