By far one of the worst Companies u have ever come across. Complete application after they send me a email to apply. Then suddenly once they have details, not even 2 minutes later declined. Horrendous service. Stay away from this company.

Dear Sir/Madam
It is difficult to investigate the problem, as you haven’t supplied sufficient details for us to do so.
We suspect however, that you have been sold, or acquired, a phone which belongs to us, and which the previous owner had no right to pass on.
The security applied to the phone, appears to have worked though, if it is unusable.
If you would like assistance to get to the bottom of the problem then please email support@sayhiya.co.uk and one of our customer service agents might be able to help.

AVOID
Do not use this company because the moment you have health problems they are ignorant to the fact. Plus if you fall behind on one product they will lock all other products you have even if they are up to date.

This company is lacking customer service and solution.firstly I have paid what feel like millions for a hobbit size TV that's controlled with a cursor who's as uncalibrated as the staffs personalities.i pay weekly and if my payment is declined maybe by error my phone goes into spam mode with "hiya" ringing 20x for £10 acting like they got a loan shark waiting on there Ferguson payment!! Complete shoddy company Susan boil would do better Harley price as her CEO.. don't use this company buy a TV on black Friday deal instead.. complete rip off for people on low income it's a completely falsely advertised "cheap rental" .....

Never Use This Company
Never use this company. On your payment due date you will get bombarded with txts emails and calls non stop from 5am. So even if you plan to pay that day they will deem it late payment and harrass you. They give you a weird dodgy tv probably worth a few hundred week and you will occur thousands of pounds paying it. Also gave me the wrong iPhone an older model which is not stated in the contract. False advertisement
