Review of the 118 118 Money, Personal Loan:

Can’t give less otherwise I would.

1
Can’t give less otherwise I would. Continuous problems with this company, continuous mistakes on a weekly basis. Just been on their chat and the agent cut me off half way through a conversation with nothing solved. Avoid avoid avoid. They made mistakes on my account which was frozen while under investigation due to mistakes on there half and marked my credit file 3 times, even when I phoned there agents they advised me not to pay until the investigation was completed, (investigation was due to mistakes they had made) I won on both cases, I got compensation and the agreement of my credit file marking to be removed, still waiting for them to remove credit file marking 6 months later. Don’t use this company absolute cowboys. Worst credit card company I’ve ever used! Update on the issues I had with 118, they still haven’t done a thing. They said they contacted credit reference agency and could take 90 days to remove the missed payments I didn’t miss off my credit file. Dead line for 90 days was dec 14, 2023. It’s now 10th Jan 2024 and still nothing. I’ve asked for proof that they actually contacted CRA and nothing. I’ve given them till 31st Jan then legal action will start. When it becomes 5th Feb it’s been a year. Avoid avoid avoid. Biggest cowboys out there. Your safer taking a loan off loan Reviewed on: 10th January 2024

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
