Barclays personal loans
A Barclays personal loan can be a quick and relatively straightforward way to access the money you need. A personal loan is unsecured, which means it is not directly tied to any of your assets.
This type of borrowing is usually best for smaller amounts of money required for a shorter period.
Advantages of Barclays personal loans
-
Borrow from £7,500 to £15,000
-
Repay over 2-5 years
-
Make fixed monthly payments for the term of the loan
-
Many customers can get a personalised quote upfront with no effect on their credit score
-
Receive the agreed funds as soon as your loan is approved and you sign the online loan agreement
-
You can pay off your loan in part or full early, subject to a charge
Restrictions on Barclays personal loans

Borrow more with a secured loan
If you require more than £15,000, Barclays offer secured loans which they refer to as “homeowner loans”. This allows you to borrow money against the market value of your home and can allow you to get substantially more credit than with an unsecured loan.
