SCAM AND FRAUD COMPANY...

This company will charge you £79 whether they decided to provide you with a service or not. They do not have a working phone number and do not respond to emails. It is clearly a scam however you cannot get your money back through the bank as technically they have told you there’s a £79 admin fee, they just don’t tell you they take it immediately and will not refund even if they decide not to take your application further.

Don’t even deserve 1 star!!

Don’t even deserve 1 star. Tell you you’ve been accepted for a loan, take £79 out of your account for a processing fee and then refuse to give you the loan!! Now financially worse off than I was before I needed the loan. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!

Stay clear

Stay clear. Took £79 from my bank, they take money from people wanting help and basically get it for doing very little.
