So easy to deal with and the customer service is honestly the best I’ve received. I needed to change the date of my DD due to a new job, this was completed so quickly, staff are friendly and polite!

Other lenders turned their noses up at me

I had very poor credit rating and First Response were the only ones to help me get finance. The first finance I got with them had an eye-watering APR but after paying it off and financing my next vehicle with them, they trusted me and gave me a near-high street rate despite me still having poor credit rating. They have treated me with kindness and respect where other lenders turned their noses up at me. Reviewed on: 25th April 2024
