 TITLE: What to Consider Before You Get an Emergency Loan CONTENT: Can I Get an Emergency Loan With Bad Credit?\n--------------------------------------------\nIt is possible to qualify for an emergency loan with bad credit. If you're hoping to qualify for a personal loan, though, your options will be limited. You can typically expect an interest rate upwards of 30% or even in the triple digits, depending on how messy your credit history is.\nIt's also possible to get a personal loan without a credit check. Some lenders use alternative credit data, such as bank account information, to determine your creditworthiness. Also, payday lenders and some bad-credit personal loan companies won't run a credit check, but their interest rates are often astronomically high, so the trade-off likely isn't worth it.\nWith a credit card cash advance, there's no additional credit check when you submit your request, so your credit score doesn't matter.
