I've had a great experience every time…
I've had a great experience every time with Shire Leasing. Over the last 15 years, they've always supported my business whenever I've needed to lease or replace equipment quickly. I have a fantastic relationship with my account managers, Vicky and Lisa, who consistently go above and beyond. The process is always quick and easy - truly first-class service. I highly recommend them.
Thank you

From start to finish Liam was amazing
From start to finish Liam was amazing. On hand to give help and advice.
I wouldn't have been able to start my dream without his help.
I highly recommend Shire and the team, but if you can get Liam you are getting 5 star treatment

We have partnered with Shire Leasing for many years, and once again they’ve proven why we keep coming back. My appointed contact, Jamie Flounders, provided exceptional service—working through some complex challenges while still delivering the best vehicle, best price, and all within the required timeframe. Jamie’s professionalism and dedication were second to none. I have no hesitation in recommending Shire Leasing to others looking for reliable, customer-focused leasing solutions.

Avoid by all means
I’m writing this review not out of bitterness, but out of a deep concern for other borrowers who, like me, may be drawn in by polished broker promises and fast approvals, only to discover a very different reality once the paperwork is signed.
I approached Shire Leasing Plc through a broker who advertised the loan as “flexible with no early repayment charges.” That phrase was pivotal in my decision. But once the contract arrived, the terms were vague, and the reality was far from what was promised. When I asked for clarification, I was met with conflicting information, a lack of transparency regarding interest rebates and early settlement figures.
What’s most troubling is that Shire Leasing operates in a "grey zone of regulation" - offering loans that may not be fully covered by the protections of the Consumer Credit Act. This means borrowers are left vulnerable, especially when trying to settle early or dispute unfair terms.
Their customer service is inconsistent. Opaque and transactional, not relational or ethical. I believe financial institutions should empower borrowers with clarity, not bury them in fine print and ambiguity.
If you're considering a loan with Shire Leasing, read every clause, get everything in writing, and don’t rely on broker promises. What’s advertised may not reflect what’s enforced.
I share this to protect others from the stress and confusion I’ve endured. Financial decisions should be built on trust - and sadly, that’s not what I found here.
