Personal, Straightforward and Fast.

My experience with Glenside Finance was better than any other company I had dealt with before. The whole process was quick, simple and non-intrusive and Sarah who I dealt with was very understanding and honest throughout the application process. The whole process was completed in a couple of weeks, but that was mainly due to finding the right car. Had one already been found prior to applying, I am sure we would have been driving away in a matter of days. I'd certainly recommend them to anyone looking for a finance company that deals with people as individuals on a personal level, rather than just a number and will certainly return to them when my current agreement comes to an end and we want to change vehicle.

Excellent

I needed finance for a short period and glenside pulled out all the stops to help me. `A very easy smooth transaction and a pleasure to deal with. `If I needed finance again in the future,they would be my lender of choice.

One stop perfect service

In a world of can't do, and too difficult, Glenside are a thoroughly refreshing change. Everything is made easy. The after sales service is 100%. When I need my new car urgently they even came to Cornwall to speed up issue of documentation. I will never use another finance company. Julian James Clark - Cornwall UK

Outstanding Service

I've used this company for 3 cars now over the past few years and the service is the best I've experienced when It comes to car finance. I've used other companies in the past and also all the mainstream lenders before my credit rating was damaged so I'm speaking from experience.

Glenside lend their own money which means you are dealing direct and the rates are very good.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the team at Glenside if you want good service fast response and a fair interest rate look no further.

Can't fault their customer service!

I can't fault the customer service and smooth application process.

I was told by at least one broker that the only company who would accept me was one which charged a whopping 35% APR, then I came across Glenside........the application process was very straightforward and I had an answer within 2 hours. Imagine my surprise when the APR offered by Glenside was actually more than 10% cheaper than the 'only' company who would accept me!

I found the staff at Glenside to be very helpful and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!

Excellent service

After spending many months trying to source car finance elsewhere with no joy, we found Glenside and the whole process was really quick and easy they are a great company to deal with..
We had almost given up trying to get the finance we need, due to past credit issues, Glenside helped and we are now in our new car...
Would definitely recommend them to others
Fantastic!
