Only use it if you can definitely afford it

I’ve used it a couple of times, when I was tight for money and wanted to keep some cash at hand. Only use it if you can afford to. Don’t get caught out by the later payments if you are tight for money at the moment. Reviewed on: 11th May 2024

I've been using Pay in 3 for years, there's a safe element knowing if something goes missing or I change my mind if its a gift I can rely knowing there's someone there to investigate or return an item without spending such a huge amount. Reviewed on: 11th May 2024

Couldn’t live without it!

5
I have never had any trouble with this method of payment. The credit doesn’t stack up as it’s set to auto pay every month. It’s my preferred method of payment to simplify expenses it’s easier to manage some big payments when it’s split in 3. The customer service is also fantastic not only has the help I’ve been give been generally good but the wait time on a call are fantastic considering the size of the company. Overall couldn’t live without it. Reviewed on: 11th May 2024
