Taken the stress away
All the team have been extremely helpful and kept me in the loop with progress reports as we have gone along. I would definitely recommend Stuart and Cathy for their helpful attitude, nothing has been too much trouble during a time that has been stressful for our business.

Fast funding for tax bills
We used Acorn for some tax bill funding. When I met Stuart Gibson the MD of Acorn, his professionalism & friendly manner immediately apparent. We recommended Acorn for some tax bill funding for a client. From initial enquiry to money being transferred was 3 weeks and the client financial affairs were not straight forward at all!Very pleased with the service provided and would highly recommend their services to our clients again.

Great team that understand our business needs
We are a small consulting firm based in London and have been working with Acorn Business Finance for the past three months. In addition to a friendly, professional team that responds quickly to our requests, I felt that Acorn really understood our business needs and were able to provide us with loan options to match. Securing finance for small growing companies isn't easy and Acorn has put in significant effort to find a solution.
