Help at the worst of times

I struggled when leaving an abusive relationship and needed financial help and support. Acorn staff helped me apply for a family loan that is paid back through child benifit. With out there help I don’t know how I would have managed. I have used them also for flooring and white goods whilst also having saving with a temporarily locked savings to help me save money too Reviewed on: 10th July 2025

Customer focused.

The loyalty loan is an excellent product with low interest, it's been really helpful when we really needed it. Acorn make the process super easy when you call, and the App makes everything else straightforward. Reviewed on: 10th July 2025
