Excellent

They really are excellent finance providers, I wanted to buy a vehicle from a local dealer and they wasn’t set up with first response, they couldn’t believe how quick they was not only getting the dealer approved but also paying out, they are an excellent company who actually listen to why you may have adverse credit and make a sensible decision, they are not just a company where computer says no which sadly too many lenders are these days, more lenders should follow first response can’t praise them highly enough.

I fell behind in a payment & was struggling to catch up, instead of defaulting on the loan they helped me to find an option to keep my car & catch up on the back payment by spreading the cost. They are very helpful. Reviewed on: 22nd July 2022
