Love pay in 3

Love pay in 3, often use it for low to mid cost purchases. Like the fact I can pay it off quicker if I choose too. It's interest free too so no added costs for my items. Reviewed on: 28th May 2024

It was easy to setup. Gives you peace of mind knowing you still have PayPal protection. Reminders a few days before payment was collected were very useful. I am definitely going to use it again! Thank you Reviewed on: 28th May 2024

I've recently moved in to a new house after a relationship breakdown and have had to start from scratch, so needed appliances that were looking to be out of reach while I got my finances in order (my industry has also suffered greatly for nearly two years now too, so I need to be careful with my outgoings) and Pay In 3 has made this possible as I can budget a lot easier with the plans in place, making sure my money is evenly distributed.
