Can’t give less otherwise I would.

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

Great

very good customer service and very easy to get a personal loan Reviewed on: 19th June 2023

Fast and easy decision,

5
Funds available very quickly as I needed it desperately, easy monthly repayment by direct debit so no need to worry about missing payments, now I have options to borrow more if I incur any more unexpected expenses, and the payment will be less monthly than the first loan, so I give a positive rating. Reviewed on: 31st May 2023

Charge a little too much on apr and never gave reason for declining a second loan after first loan paied off Reviewed on: 25th May 2023

Excellent service

5
We needed a loan to purchase a new sofa last year, and this help massively. It didn’t leave a hard search on our credit file which is great, and loan was quickly transferred same day into our account. No issues, quickly done and in timely manner. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2023

Really easy, fair and consumer friendly

118 offer loans to people thT may not have a perfect credit score but take into account all information required to make sure you know what you are getting. They are fair and consistent with communication and easy to contact if needs be. Customer service is brilliant. Reviewed on: 13th January 2023
