Got approved for a 10k lightstream personal loan today! After getting denied at several different banks and CUs. Including: penfed cu, avant, sofi, etc.. I was just so surprised after hearing how difficult getting approved for a lightstream loan can be.
Background, average credit age 2 yrs 9 months, 15 inquirys, 18 accounts open and closed with 3 CCs 3k limits each and 2 personal loans mariner 3.5k, lending club 4.2k, one car loan, several installment loans (affirm). Lightstream pulled equifax with 678 score.
Yes, I also heard Lightstream was difficult. What are the terms? What documentation or POI did they ask for?
This is the 2nd recent positive report about them on this forum. If I ever find myself in a need for a low interest unsecured loan I will definitely look at them. Congrats!


























I was also approved for 10k by Lightstream this week. I was very surprised because I moved a week ago and my address should not have matched up when they ran my credit (EQ only). I applied Tuesday evening and I received funds this morning. The least stressful financial transaction I've ever had![]()







No POI, terms were 48 months at 13.5% or 60-72 at 14.5%. Not great but better than everything else Ive been offered and much better than the 36% its paying off.
Thanks!
Do you know what version EQ they pulled?
Not sure, it doesnt say on the report. Just EQ and the score.
Congrats and thanks for the DPs! In about a month or two when/if my scores go up i'll be looking into lightstream as well.
Loving these Lightstream approvals, wish I had taken the HP with them before going with Marcus by Goldman Sachs. Congrats, OP!
