On PIP and looking to get a loan

Twiggy84

Hi I'm on pip and not 2 well.. and with everything going up I need 2 get loan.. me and my partner finished and now I'm doing it on my own so I'm struggling Elizabeth but in two months my daughter's back in the country she'll be helping me with build but until then I am not into place mentally this training me so if I could just loan that'll be spectacular

Hi @Twiggy84. I'm sorry to hear you're not well. We have lots of advice about money and grants here https://www.scope.org.uk/advice-and-support/money-and-finances/help-with-bills-and-cost-of-living

Do you receive ESA? If so, you could get a Budgeting Loan https://www.gov.uk/budgeting-help-benefits/eligibility

If you receive UC, you could apply for an Advance https://www.gov.uk/universal-credit-advance-hardship-payment/unexpected-costs However, this is for one-off costs, such as home repairs or household items.

If you don't claim either of those, here is some information on standard loans Money Helper -Getting a loan if you're ill or disabled. Have you had a loan before? Do you feel you'd be able to make the repayments on time?
