Loan was declined for lack of disposable income, however with a take home pay of £3000 and outgoings of around £1400 I had more than enough to cover £50 loan repayment. My outgoings were high on leisurely spending not regular outgoings. This is different to me not having sufficient disposable income. Unsure who underwrites the loans but clearly not within standards. - don’t waste your time. Reviewed on: 18th March 2026

I am experiencing technical difficulties, so I was unable to get communications, MCU could have phoned me but they didn't, so the loan was just sitting there unclaimed for almost a week because no extra communications were pursued. I therefore waited too long. Make sure you follow up your responses with calls too! Reviewed on: 18th March 2026
