Hi all do not use this company

Hi all do not use this company, as many other people have stated they take money without clearly stating it in their guidlines, they refuse to refund but there is hope, quote the Consumer Rights Act of 2015 you have the Right to Withdrawl from good and services within a 14 day cooling off period they will try and push it off but its a legal requirement that they follow these trading standards in line with the FCA guidelines, then you can also contact the Financial Ombudsman which even if your claim is invalidated it will cost the company a minimum of £700 per claim, that's one way to take this terrible place down.

Please do not use this company as they are only after the ££ of most financially vulnerable people. I cancelled my account with them after a day as changed my mind and had paid them £19.99. They have since taken a second payment and their response to my emails requesting a refund is a "cut and paste" response saying they are sorry to see me go.

i was also tricked into this service i do not need or want. £19.99 has been taken from my bank. I cannot find a phone number for them either. I have contacted my Bank who are happy to take action after 15 days. I have sent 2 emails to them requesting to refund my money and no response as yet. I will keep trying or will have to go to the financial ombudsman.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of Credit Chum. Customer feedback is important to us, and we are sorry to hear that you feel that on this occasion our service has not met your expectations.

Based on the information in your review we can see that only one £19.99 payment was taken which after speaking to our Customer Services team was then refunded to you. No further payments have been taken as the account is cancelled.

We kindly ask that you check your bank statement to see if it is a different company who may have taken a payment.

Thieves and scum

Their business model is basically to lure in people desperate for a loan then slyly rob them of 20 quid without them knowing.

Refunded very quickly

Credit Chum took £19.99 from my bank account for a month use of their services which I didn’t want. I contacted them and they have since issued a full refund.
I would just like to say thank you very much to the company for doing this.

This lot are another Saving Star

This lot are another Saving Star - a company that charges you a minimal fee like £0.09 to check if your bank account is active but then a few days later, they sting you for a larger amount. I had to shut my bank account down because Saving Star kept trying to take £29.95 from my account (always late on a Friday night) and had a near miss with Credit Chum. Was looking for a loan and I almost put my card details into the Credit Chum website but I stopped myself right at the last minute. If this company were legitimate, they would refund customers immediately and there would be no need for all these terrible reviews with the cut and paste replies from Credit Chum. I reported Saving Star to Action Fraud but they aren’t interested in small fraud so won’t be taking any action. Please be careful out there.

I provided my details originally to obtain a loan and had 9p taken from my account to authorise. Since then, this company have been trying to continuously take £19.99 out of my account. I am now reporting them for fraud and contacting my bank. Absolute scammers. Be very careful. There is no contact number either. I request if you see this - CREDITCHUM, that you pay me my money back asap!!
You are going to be sued and closed down eventually anyway.

• Discounts & vouchers
• Useful guides & resources

We would like to make it clear that Credit Chum does not charge users for applying for a loan (nor is it stated that you are approved for a loan), the monthly payment that we charge is to enable us to provide the services outlined above. Some of these, for example giving our customers access to their full Credit Report and Score, we have to pay for. Alongside this, like all businesses, we have operating costs, such as our team who are working hard to help with customer queries, sourcing great deals, putting together informative guides and ensuring that the website is maintained and kept up to date. All of this is done with our customers in mind as our goal is to provide a service which offers value.

Of course, we understand that this service may not be the right solution for everyone, so should you feel the service is not right for you then there is no obligation for you to sign-up. If you choose not to sign-up for the service, then you will not have access to Credit Chum and you will not be charged the £19.99 subscription fee.

Unfortunately we cannot discuss your account on a public forum, so in order for us to look into your query further we kindly request that you contact our Customer Services team at your earliest convenience via https://www.creditchum.co.uk/contact_us quoting reference "TP:M"

Kind regards,
The Credit Chum Team

CreditScum it should be called.

CreditScum it should be called.
The same unapologetic soulless email reply to customers, blaming customers for their purposely confusing built website.
Their home of operations is in Manchester just down the road from me, very interesting indeed.
Legal thieves.

Absolute Scam!

Absolute Scam!! How these people sleep at night, I’ll never know! Life is hard right now and they take money off you without you consenting! Same story to everyone else on here, have contacted customer services and nothing, and to add insult to injury upon trying to sign in to credit chum thinking I must have ticked yes to agreeing to have this “account” (that’s good for absolutely nothing) there are no details for any of my emails…so tell me credit chum? How have I subscribed to something when I don’t even have an account with you? Absolute scum!

As we do not charge customers who have not agreed to the service / signed-up to Credit Chum we take allegations of this very seriously. From your review it appears that you have already contacted our Customer Services team (we apologise if there has been a delay in our response), but so that we can look into this further we kindly ask that you re-contact our Team quoting reference “TP:KS" at your earliest convenience via: https://www.creditchum.co.uk/contact_us

Our team can also look into as to why you were unable to log into your account.

Kind regards,
