Like I said previously.

The Provident may be able to help but the lending limit is £500. Not sure the terms & conditions though.

If the banks won't help with a loan, probably due to it being a fairly small amount you could try for a credit card or even apply for and overdraft with your bank.

Found Tesco Club Credit Card easy to apply for. The credit limit starts at £500, so if you get that and a loan from Provident you're sorted.

have you asked your work they might be able to help you either a advance on your wages or a loan then you just repay through your wages

I just thought. Try MBNA. Their credit limit was around £2500 for their basic card when I got mine.

Look, it sounds like your in a very difficult situation. If you continue applying for any credit card and loan that you can, this will all be recorded on your credit rating, and make you situation worse. If your being refused credit it's likely that you have too much credit already, or you have defaulted on payments recently.
If you desperately need credit you will probably have to go to one of the high risk, high interest loan companies.

I think you need professional help in this situation and firstly recommend that you try checking out this website for advice http://www.cccs.co.uk/

For anyone who wants to learn more about saving money, cutting costs and reducing debts, it's well worth visiting www.moneysavingexpert.com . This is a great website for Filipina's who have just moved to the country and want to make sure they aren't overpaying and being caught in scams and similar situations. It's also a good website for anyone who simply wants to save money.

Sorry if this message is a little blunt, but sometimes you need that.

Last time I was in the Philippines, I went to UnionBank and inquired about their loan products. They even have this card which you can use anywhere. Sort of like a debit card which makes transactions easier (I think). hehehe! Check out the application form hereLoan application form (http://unionbankph.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1791&Itemid=19) I'm not sure about the requirements though. Try checking online or inquiring, I'm sure they will entertain even you if you're abroad.
