What is a personal loan?

A personal loan is a fixed amount of money you borrow and repay in monthly instalments over an agreed term.

You’ll pay interest on the loan, which is included in your monthly repayments. The amount of interest you pay is based on the rate you’re offered. That rate depends on how much you borrow, the repayment term you choose and the lender's assessment of your personal circumstances.

How personal loans work

What a loan can't be used for

  • Paying for speculative purchases, for example: gambling.
  • Investments, such as stocks, shares and crypto currency.
  • Business reasons.
  • Land or property – buying, leasing or paying a deposit.
  • Timeshare or Holiday clubs.
  • Anything illegal.

To apply, you need to:

  • be aged 18 or older
  • be a UK resident, not including Channel Islands and the Isle of Man
  • have held a Lloyds current account for at least 1 month

Let’s look at the details

  • When you apply for a loan, the lender will complete a hard credit check. This does have the potential to affect your credit score, whether you’re approved or not.

    If approved, a new loan increases your total debt and decreases the average age of your accounts. This could lead to a temporary drop in your credit score but managing your repayments carefully and on time should help your score to recover.

    If you’re declined, it could cause a short-term dip in your credit score, so it’s wise to wait and work to improve your score before you try again. Making multiple credit applications in a short space of time can compound any negative effect on your score.

    If you’re a Lloyds customer, you can get a personal loan quote online, which won’t affect your credit score. If you’re able to apply, we’ll tell you how likely you are to be approved before you complete a full loan application involving a hard credit check.

  • APR stands for annual percentage rate. It helps give you an idea of how much your loan could cost over a year, shown as a percentage. The APR includes the interest rate and standard fees only.

    The lower the APR, the cheaper it could be for you to borrow. But you should aim to borrow the lowest amount over the shortest possible term, helping to keep your borrowing costs to a minimum.

    When you apply, we’ll work out your personalised loan rate (APR) based on:

    • your application details. Including how much you want to borrow and the time you need to repay it
    • your credit record. This gives us a breakdown of your credit history, your ability to keep up with repayments and any potential risks we should be aware of
    • your past account history. Including how you’ve managed any loans, credit cards and other accounts you’ve held with us before.
  • Generally, the higher your credit score is, the better your chances are of being accepted for a personal loan.

    Your credit score can also influence the amount you can borrow and the interest rate you’re offered.

  • No, you cannot borrow more than £50,000 with a Lloyds personal loan.

    We offer loans ranging between £1,000 and £50,000. How much you can borrow will depend on an assessment of your personal circumstances.

  • If you miss a loan payment, we’ll usually send you a secure message through online banking or the mobile banking app to ask you to make the payment. This message will also cover any late charges or extra interest you might have to pay.

    If you’re worried about missing a payment or have already missed one, let us know.
