Reviews for Moneybarn have trended negatively over the past 90 days

Moneybarn’s car finance is praised for its friendly, helpful staff and straightforward, quick application process. Many found it a lifesaver when other lenders said no, appreciating the clear communication and easy online management. However, high interest rates and issues with vehicle quality or customer service delays left a sour taste for some.

Positive themes

  • Moneybarn’s staff are friendly, helpful and make the whole car finance process easy.
  • Moneybarn made it possible to get car finance despite bad credit or difficult situations.
  • The application and approval process with Moneybarn is quick and hassle free.

Negative themes

  • Interest rates with Moneybarn are often very high and can feel extortionate.
  • Some customers had serious issues with faulty cars and poor vehicle quality.
  • Customer service can be slow or unhelpful when dealing with problems or complaints.

Moneybarn were there for me at a time when I was struggling to get finance with very few providers. Thank you Moneybarn for a smooth transaction as well as good communication.
