This loan saved me!

This loan saved me! It was so easy to apply, funds came quickly and repaying is easy. I haven't had any issues, but I would assume they're happy to help with anything! Reviewed on: 6th February 2026

From the moment I contacted them I felt as though I was being listened to & was being treated like a cherished person. It didn’t matter how many times I asked questions I felt that the person I was speaking to had my interests at heart Reviewed on: 5th February 2026

Simple and reliable loan service

5
Plata made my personal loan straightforward and clear, with no unnecessary extras. Communication has always been clear and it’s easy to keep track of payments. I’ve never had any issues, and customer service was great when I needed to call them recently. Reviewed on: 5th February 2026

Plata makes borrowing feel personal, not bureaucratic.

Plata makes borrowing feel personal, not bureaucratic. Unlike traditional banks with rigid platforms and cold systems, Plata's platform feels inviting, like a helpful shop assistant, not a stern gatekeeper. They treat you like a valued customer, working with you, offering flexible solutions, and removing the stigma. It's a collaborative, human experience. Reviewed on: 5th February 2026

5 star service, great platform and easy to use

Easy application, great online account experience - everything clearly explained and easy to use. Reviewed on: 4th February 2026

They have helped me when others wouldn’t rates are reasonable customer service was great very helpful. Quick turn around from application to payment being received. Everything was easily setup with no faff. Reviewed on: 4th February 2026

Excellent, but for one anomalous defect . . .

5
My experience thus far, albeit less than two months in, has been almost flawless, easily on a par with that of all previous and present financial services (National Westminster: utterly unsatisfactory; Co-operative: highly satisfactory; Capital One: excellent, efficient, responsible; PayPal: helpful, but quick to debit, very, VERY slow to credit or refund), in that it has been easy, clear, efficient, helpful, responsible and, above all, affordable, fixed, secure: the top-up facility (as on my former Bank of Scotland extendable mortgage, much used as necessary) would seem to be the icing on the cake, but for the fact that no-one can, or will, provide any indication WHATSOEVER as to either its availability, or even the eligibility-criteria ~ no dates, amounts, existing liabilities, circumstances, absolutely nothing WHATSOEVER, declaring it to be "an internal matter", without offering any rationale or explanation; all of which strikes me as regrettable, inexplicable and frankly bizarre ~ why the secrecy? What the jeopardy? To whom the benefit? Incomprehensible, and unsatisfactory . . . ! Reviewed on: 4th February 2026

Not the best, but not the worst...

I think the interest rate is high, but unfortunately there is nothing to be done about that. I am still grateful for their service, however. Reviewed on: 4th February 2026

Easy process and great service.

Easy process and great service. Hassle free document process and funds within minutes into bank account. Reviewed on: 4th February 2026
