Acorn provide a great service.

Acorn provide a great service. The customer service is excellent, always receive a prompt response to any queries I send by email and my phonecalls are always answered promptly. I've ever encountered any issues with either loans or savings, my loan repayments have always been structured on an affordable way that helps facilitate my continued saving. The app is really helpful aswell and there's a YouTube channel which clearly explains how to use it. Reviewed on: 11th June 2024
