I have used Acorn for years. Have always been declined for a "proper loan" due to bad credit history despite now owning a house outright and working fulltine which is frustrating. However, I am able to get a loan using child benefit. I wish they'd take into account other factors when making decisions. Reviewed on: 28th January 2026
