Loan application nightmare!!

1
In short; app said I’d likely be approved for a loan, applied online and approved advising money would hit account in a few days. System glitch (which NatWest stated was my error- Since proved otherwise) and process started again. 3 months later, 20+ phone calls later and advised loan approved by complaints manager and on the day the money due to hit the account..... it was ‘declined’. If it wasn’t so spectacularly frustrating; the level of corporate dysfunction would almost be impressive! Reviewed on: 28th December 2018

Extremely heloful

Great

Loan approved and funds available in 48 hours, great service Reviewed on: 10th June 2018

Poor Rates

2
Poor rates offered, did not cater to individual circumstances Reviewed on: 1st June 2018

Not helpful

2
Not a very helpful bank. My credit score was okay but they would only give me a loan at a ridiculous rate. You would think that they would help you considering you are their customer. Customer service is bad - end up waiting on hold for ages and you never really get anywhere. Reviewed on: 30th April 2018

Great

Applied for a loan online, easy to do and got a loan decision immediately. Funds were in my account the next working day Reviewed on: 11th February 2018
