Used to be a good but uselss at the moment

Used to be a good provider really helped with vets bills on and off.

If you are applying recently go else where due to a "technical" error by the payment team they are still accepting applications and approving them but nothing is being paid out. After 36 hours the loan is cancelled. Don't leave a marker on your credit score for these people who can not make the fundamental part of depositing the loan you are taking out.

It has been happening since Monday now and looks like it will not be fixed anytime soon so people head my warning steer cmesr until this issue is fixed.

Brilliant service

Brilliant service. During COVID I lost my job and this ruined my credit score but this service still considered me and allowed me to get a short term loan.
Rates are a bit crazy so I advise taking up their option to pay the total early.
Best use of this service is to use for emergencies that you can pay off the total amount within a few days.

Shocking company - Avoid

Shocking company. Told I was approved for a loan, then told the money was on the way, 24 hours later nothing and no response to email or feedback on the site so I phoned. I was told it this was due to a technical glitch they just didn't bother telling me about but funds would be in my account by 10pm, 10pm and no money.

The site does tell me when my next repayment of the money I haven't received yet so that's always handy.
