Looking at 73 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Many people were satisfied with the service, with some noting that their investments were paid back in full and interest payments were made on time. Customers appreciate the friendly and approachable staff, who take the time to explain things thoroughly and provide professional guidance. Reviewers also highlight the excellent customer service, with some receiving wonderful support and clear communication. However, some people were dissatisfied with the payment process, experiencing significant delays in withdrawals and partial repayments, which was not the case before recent changes in terms and conditions.

Very staisfactory p2p experience

Easy to use interface. Lenders kept up to date. I'm only withdrawing funds as the financial future looks uncertain with borrowers unable to meet target dates. However as there uis sufficient security in the loans I'm not worried, and KL certainly keep on top of the job

Investment term ended and email said unless I responded by next day the funds would be re-invested. Sounds very dodgy. However, I contacted them and funds were made available to withdraw within 24 hours, so 'happy ending.

Thank you very much for your review - it is much appreciated.

We begin to contact investors 6 months in advance to any Auto / Auto IF-ISA maturities to provide plenty of notice, and time to instruct us with your plans. Reminder emails are sent throughout this period if we have not heard anything and towards the end we also aim to call.

The reason the default is set to roll over for a further 1 year period if we do not hear back is due to a lot of the time people may have other priorities they are tending to before they check on their accounts. We find that when we notify investors of wallet funds later down the line they are shocked to hear they are sat idle not accruing them any interest.

We find with this set up it allows investments to stay invested continuing to put your money to work. We do give a 30 day window after investments have rolled over for users to reverse this, and of course are lenient in other circumstances where it may have not been physically possible to contact us back, or instruct any plans on accounts.

I hope that provides a further explanation to you, as always our team are on hand to assist if required.

Kuflink good work - with necessary advice

Kuflink have done good work, showing honestly the financial risks which people need to understand if they wish to participate. Much is given on the contributer's site, though personally some issues have been unclear to me at times and then when I call to a helper they have been very good.

Could do very slightly better

The date of my experience is only approx. My views refer to my last three years with Kuflink!
They are a fine company offering excellent rates of interest. However there are a few points which new investors need to know about.
1. They only pay simple interest so if you invest for a longer term than 12 months you will lose a little after the first year.
2. I invested for 5 years and when I realised I was only getting simple interest I tried to get my interest paid away but this was not allowed at first. Then when the changed their minds I had to pay a £35 charge which meant paying to obtain my own money!
3. They appear to be a little tardy when paying out moneys and it needed some messages from me to try to get things moving.
4. They did eventually allow me to withdraw my investment after about 3 years with full interest for the time invested and without any withdrawal charges. I did appreciate this and have told them so.
5. When you do withdraw your money - if everyone is treated as I was - you get told you are now persona non grata (my term) and you will not be allowed to invest with them again. Luckily there are plenty of alternatives to Kuflink.
On the plus side they answer your questions quickly enough and they say no one has ever lost a penny when investing with them and I believe them! and but for the points mentioned above I would have given then 5 stars.

Good IFISA company

Good IFISA company. I joined because of the auto-investment option but ended up using the self-select option more since it gives the same rates, with the advantage of being locked in the investments for a much shorter period.
