Mixed Experiences with Iwocas Financial Solutions

1
As a business owner, I turned to iwoca.co.uk, attracted by their motto, “We’re building finance that works for your business.” Initially, my experience was positive, especially when managing regular payments. However, challenges arose when I faced financial difficulties. During this period, I found iwoca’s support less than satisfactory. Despite their assurances that a County Court Judgment (CCJ) would resolve my issues, they proceeded with a Charging Order three months later. This action contradicted their earlier communications and added to the stress of my financial situation. Moreover, I encountered significant communication hurdles. Approximately half of my emails went unanswered, and when responses were provided, they often reiterated the need to “secure Iwoca’s position,” without offering tangible solutions or support for my circumstances. Their claim of being FCA regulated is true, yet I felt this did not translate into fair or supportive treatment during my time of need. This experience has left me questioning the balance they strike between business interests and customer support. While iwoca may offer effective financial solutions under normal circumstances, my experience suggests that they may fall short in offering the necessary support and guidance when customers face financial hardships.

The simplest borrowing option for small businesses

iwoca offer a fantastic service to small businesses. The application process is seamless and the fact you can easily chat with the team on webchat or phone calls is such a breath of fresh air compared to high street banks call centres. Highly recommend. Reviewed on: 4th February 2021

Largely a waste of time

2
This lot largely wasted my time. I applied for business funding and they made swift contact, only to start asking for proof upon proof of income, contracts, solictor and accountant's reports and the like. For a sole trader who does his own accounts this was nigh on impossible, and after much deliberation (which took ages) Iwoca rejected me. They then passed my details over to a bunch of other companies that were clearly on some sort of referral scheme and the deluge of calls began. Not the best experience.
