Question about finance

[Useless Eater]

I was hoping to take out a finance option on a custom laptop but it seems you have to be either employed, retired or self employed. I am disabled and due to the nature of this not likely to be working full time anytime soon, if ever. My credit rating is probably pretty good and I would be able to pay the whole cost off in 12 months. Could i apply as 'retired'? Or is it not even worth trying to apply?

I would say you wouldn't qualify but you could still try to see how it goes.

If your credit rating is good why don't you apply for a personal loan, you'll probably get a better rate as well ?

Thanks. Got a personal loan instead just in case I was rejected, which would knock my rating. Just need to put together my beast of a laptop now
