Unfortunately, my previous van had to be repossessed and I went through an IVA, which made getting finance very tricky, but luckily I found Moneybarn. Moneybarn were able to finance me for a Transit Custom, which is a van I’ve wanted for a while. They have a real personal touch to the whole process!

We offer a conditional sale agreement for van finance. This means that you will have full use of the van for the length of the agreement and it will be registered in your name. We will remain the legal owner until all repayments are made.

The advantages of a conditional sale agreement for those seeking van finance for bad credit are:

  • You don’t pay a large sum up front or at the end of the agreement like you might with other finance types like with Van Leasing (PCH) or Personal Contract Purchase (PCP)
  • Payments are fixed for the duration of the agreement
  • You don’t need to pay an ‘option to purchase’ fee to own the van at the end of the agreement

It’s important to remember that everyone’s eligibility for bad credit van finance is different, as well as their repayments and their APR. Whether or not you can get no deposit van finance depends on a number of personal factors such as affordability and credit score.

Can I get guaranteed van finance?

No, guaranteed van finance is a myth. It doesn’t exist – nor does guaranteed van finance for bad credit. A responsible lender will never be able to offer guaranteed van finance without running the appropriate affordability and credit checks.

You might have seen other lenders discuss this topic. Some might even claim to offer guaranteed van finance themselves. A legitimate lender will never try to sell you guaranteed van finance of any form. Your eligibility will be different to other people, because there are lots of different factors involved.

Thankfully, the Consumer Credit (Advertisements) Regulations 2010 protects customers from misleading claims such as ‘guaranteed van finance for bad credit’. If you do see anyone claiming otherwise, you should be careful. Please see our guide that explains why guaranteed finance is a myth.

You may have also seen offers of ‘guaranteed van finance with no credit check’. It’s our duty as a lender to offer customers finance that they can afford. To do this, we use a soft credit check when you apply. This does not impact your credit score. If you’d like to know more about what checks are done when you apply for bad credit van finance, please see our guide on no credit check finance.

Bad credit van finance for self-employed

You might find it more difficult to find van finance if you’re self-employed with bad credit. You may have even been refused finance from mainstream lenders. We’re experts in helping those who have been turned down elsewhere. That includes if you’re looking for bad credit van finance when self-employed.

Your monthly income before tax must be at least £1,300, and we’ll need to see proof of your income such as your past two bank statements, as well as proof of identity. Our helpful team will be able to guide you through the process. If you’re ready, you could get a quote today.

What is no credit check van finance?

You might have heard of the idea of getting van finance with no credit check. It’s important to know that responsible lenders will always carry out a credit check on you when you apply. A credit check lets a lender see if you are eligible for van finance, and helps them make sure the van finance is affordable for you.

We will only make a soft credit check at the point of application, which won’t affect your credit score. If you’re still unsure, then we have written a guide explaining the two different types of credit check.

Everyone’s eligibility for van finance is different, especially when you are looking for poor credit van finance. A lender might use a soft credit check to look at a number of factors, including:

  • Your identity
  • Your address and how long you have lived there
  • How much credit you have currently
  • If you have missed any payments

If you’d like to understand more, then check out our guide which explains why no credit check finance doesn’t exist.

We are one of the leading specialist lenders of vehicle finance and have helped thousands of people across the UK when they’ve been refused for van finance elsewhere.

What is no deposit van finance?

If you don’t have the money to put down a deposit for a new van, you might be looking for van finance with no deposit. This is where you don’t pay anything up front.

We recognise that it might be hard to save up to put together a deposit for van finance. As bad credit specialists we ensure that our van finance agreements are affordable, sustainable and suitable for you. Getting approved for no deposit van finance depends on a number of factors, such as credit score and affordability.

Putting down a deposit can help get a van when its slightly outside of your affordability, as it helps to reduce monthly payments.

Getting no deposit van finance might make a van more affordable in the beginning. However, it might cost you more in the long run. This is because you will be borrowing a larger amount of money to cover the cost of the van, meaning you pay back more over the duration of the agreement as there will likely be more interest added to your van finance agreement.

One of the things you can do to increase your chances of getting finance is to check your credit file. Below we’ve got some helpful guides which will help you if you’re looking for poor credit van finance, or if you’re hoping to get a no deposit van finance agreement.
