Doing postgrad again without bachelors but with masters?

I tried to google it, but haven't really found an answer. I will be doing a Master's degree from a decent uni. Thing is, I don't have a Bachelor's - only UK Level 6 Diploma (kinda on Bachelor's level, tertiary, but not a university). I really like studying and I don't want to limit myself from an opportunity to get another Master;s. Is it a general rule of thumb that with having a Master's you may do, let's say, an MBA, despite not having a Bachelor's degree? Or is it evaluated on a case-by-case basis? Any insights would be appreciated.

“Destiny is a gift. Some go their entire lives, living existences of quiet desperation, never learning the truth that what feels as though a burden pushing down upon their shoulders is really a sense of purpose that lifts us to greater heights. Never forget that fear is but the precursor to valor, that to strive and triumph in the face of fear is what it means to be a hero. Don’t think. Become.”
