Looking for quick access to cash? Fast Loan UK can help! As direct loan lenders, we offer a reliable and efficient solution with affordable £400 loans that are designed to support you in short-term financial situations. From urgent car repairs to vet bills, a 400 pound loan can act as a much-needed financial cushion to help you cover essential costs.

When you apply for a £400 loan with us, you can trust that speed doesn’t come at the expense of safety. As an FCA-authorised lender, we carry out affordability checks to ensure any loan you take is suitable for your financial situation, even if you have a bad credit score.

About Our £400 Direct Lender Loans

When you apply for a £400 loan with us, you’re dealing directly with a direct lender from start to finish, meaning faster decisions, clearer communication, and a smoother borrowing experience. You can apply for a loan in minutes using our simple online application form and receive a response within a few seconds. Once you’ve reviewed your no-obligation quote and decided to accept it, we’ll ask you to e-Sign the agreement and the funds could be transferred into your account within a couple of hours.

Our £400 payday loans are offered on an unsecured, short or medium term basis. We’re always completely transparent about our loans, and you’re welcome to contact us if you have any questions.

  • Unsecured loans: we don’t ask for any collateral for you to borrow a £400 loan from us. This means no risk of losing possessions, although missed repayments can affect your credit score.
  • Short term and medium term: choose how long to repay your loan — from 7 days up to 8 months for first-time borrowers and up to 12 months for returning customers.
  • Direct lender: no broker or setup fees. Get personalised support via your own Customer Care manager, 7 days a week.

Can I Get A £400 Loan with Bad Credit?

We assess applicants on a case-by-case basis and don't rely solely on your credit history. We understand that poor credit can have many causes. As long as you can afford the repayments, we are usually happy to approve your application.

We still perform a credit check as part of our responsible lending process, regulated by the FCA. Be cautious of lenders offering £400 loans with no credit check — they may be operating unfairly or even illegally.

Is A Loan Right For Me?

Whether a £400 loan is right for you depends on your current finances and ability to repay. We can process approvals quickly, making it suitable for emergency costs like car or home repairs.

However, short-term loans often have higher interest rates. Only proceed if you’re confident you can afford the repayments, including all applicable fees and interest.

Adjusting your loan term is possible at any time. Contact your Customer Care manager to extend or repay early — no early repayment fees apply.
