Once you have a final tally of debts owed and a weighted average interest rate you can see what type of loan you can be approved for. If you are lucky it won't be a bad credit personal loan. Go through the report and fins any mistakes or errors that are affecting your credit. If you have some luck you may be able to file for identity theft.

Once you have fixed any errors you can now go about applying for a personal loan for people with bad credit. So go to your bank and see if they have any programs for special cases like you. If they do not then get online and look up different lenders for the amount you need to borrow.
