Brilliant customer service

Provided a final outcome on minutes with detailed information into how thinks would proceed Reviewed on: 27th April 2020

Early settlement - denied!

1
I have contacted them multiple times over the past month ( via chat ) requesting a quote to settle the loan early. They are unable to help because of some "issues" on their end. Well, this isn't really my problem is it? They told me to call them instead... well i did try, nobody picking the phone! From the loan agreement: "Pursuant to Section 94 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974, You have a right to repay the loan early at any time in full or in part." Since i am bying denied the right to repay it early and therfore lose money because now i have to pay more... I am going to contact trading standards. I will also leave the very same review on every possible review site i can find them on. People need to be aware of how they treat their customers! Reviewed on: 9th April 2020

Thanks for not caring

Shame you can't give a 0 stars review. Absolutely stay away from this company. Loans are given out fast and easily but if you have any issues there customer services is scripted and uncaring and the terms and conditions are unethical. I was in a nasty vehicle accident, I went out of my way despite being in hospital injured to notify them I would have 0 income for 2+ months as I'd be on sick leave, for them to be the only company I've ever met who continues to default you and add arrears. Complains go nowhere and you get the response it's policy allot and you even get defaults if your on a payment plan so even when you go back to normal payments your never out of arrears. I have worked with other companies and I've never known a back handed view like this.. Ever. IF YOU FALL ON ANY HARD TIMES THEY WILL MAKE YOUR LIFE HELL. You'll spend most of your time stressed. Ill... Pay us..... Lost you job... Pay us.... Nearly died... Who cares pay us. I'm not exajerating this has been my experience since my accident dealing with this company. My advice go somewhere else for your loan, they dont care about you or any accidental circumstance changes. Unsympathetic and disgusting Reviewed on: 11th February 2020

Terrible Company

1
I have had an awful experience with 118 118 Money. Their customer services is extremely poor and offer contradictory advice on matters such as default notices, which is wholly unacceptable. The FCA should review their licence! Please NEVER use this company!! Reviewed on: 18th October 2019
