At Ume Loans, we understand that past financial challenges don't have to define your future. Just because you've had setbacks doesn't mean your dream of owning a caravan is out of reach. We know that securing finance with a poor credit score can be difficult, especially when traditional lenders turn you down.
That's why we specialise in offering bad credit caravan loans tailored to your unique circumstances. Whether you're buying new or used, from a dealership or private seller, our loans are built to give you real options, without unnecessary roadblocks.
Our mission is to help you achieve your goals, even when the odds seem stacked against you. We don't believe in automatic denials, only personalised solutions. By assessing your financial situation holistically, we create a loan package designed to get you on the open road sooner, with terms that work for you.
At UME Loans, we understand that life’s twists and turns can impact anyone, and a credit score isn’t the full picture. That’s why we take time to listen, understand your personal circumstances, and work with you to shape loan solutions that meet your needs.

By valuing your future over your past, we look beyond the numbers to find ways to say yes and help you achieve loan approval.

It is common for lenders to want to extend the term of your loan. When the loan term is extended, the payments are usually lower, and the interest rate is higher. Lenders typically extend loan terms because it helps reduce your monthly payments.
Your poor credit history may allow you to receive less of a total loan amount than you want. A lower loan limit ensures you get approved for your caravan loan, so it is essential to understand why.
A bad credit caravan loan usually results in more paperwork that must be completed. The lenders will want to verify how your financial situation has changed.
They may require rent receipts, utility bills, or pay slips to prove your ability to make your loan repayments.
Lenders will likely advise you to put down a higher deposit on the caravan if your credit score is low. A higher deposit offsets the lending risk- meaning it can increase your chances of an approval.
A higher deposit is standard and offsets the premium’s cost. If you feel unprepared to put down a higher deposit, consider taking more time to save up for the deposit.
You may be subject to higher interest rates with a bad credit history caravan loan. This is because your application is considered high risk, which is common.
