Bad Credit Loans Oakland, CA ($100 - $35,000)

Beware of False Promises

We do our best to vet all the lenders in our network, but it is always wise to look out for misleading language and false promises.

No legal lender in Oakland can promise instant or guaranteed approval and they will all carry out some form of credit check, even if it isn't via one of the big three credit rating agencies.

The Good News: Regardless of whether this credit check returns a poor credit history, you will not be automatically rejected.

Our users are routinely approved by lenders for reasonable amounts based on their employment status and income level, and they are much less discriminatory than the large banks and traditional lenders. So why not give it a shot?
