Hello. I'm out of work right now and have been for several months.

(I don't want benefits but when you've been recently
Employed you can't claim even if you wanted too within x amount of time)


And I'm struggling, can you get a credit card in the uk with no credit check / light or with bad bad credit?

I'm struggling and I need to purchase some things. I don't even have a TV right now and my beds broken.

This isn't a sob story everybody struggles I'm just curious.

Also, I've asked on here and I know this is a gaming site but I have nowhere else / nobody else to ask

Thank you

You could probably get a credit card with a low score but the interest would be through the roof! Same with a loan.
Your best bet would probably be to phone up some agencies to see if there's any work going as they're always looking for people. (Thats if you're physically able to work as you haven't stated why you're not working lol)

agency work definitely your best bet to get a job fast until you find a better one. Credit card not worth it since you stated that your score is extremely low. Interest rates would be ridiculous as stated above

I'm not familiar with the UK, but maybe you should try to apply for government assistance.

I was in a bad situation recently and I realized I just had too many things so I sold off and got rid of all the stuff that wasn't helping me get to where I wanted to be. That gave me less distractions and stuff to worry about so I could focus on working more and earning money to get myself out of debt.

This isn't Embarrassing at all in the slightest man, We are all currently in a cost of living crisis, some unfortunately have it worse than others like yourself.. isnt there some sort of credit card scheme or summit that we have here?
