They take advantage of those with bad rates and charge them exponential interest that should be illegal. I took out a 15k loan and they charged me 15k. So 30k I had to pay back. After 2 years I paid back 15k but still had 14k left to go for the remainder 3 years. I’d avoid. They are vultures Reviewed on: 25th February 2026

Never gained a thing, always in minus

twice I tried with this investment account, both times holding accounts for 8+ months and both times was in minus, never once did it ever go up vs my Nutmeg account which was around 12% return since the first couple grand in Reviewed on: 14th June 2021

Great flexibility, great returns

5
mobile and desktop app are perfect, the ability to alter and change amounts paid in, the amount you can take out (within 3-5 working days) and the speed of response from the management is amazing. Can't recommend enough and prefer this than letting money go to waste in a bank savings account with returns averaging 12% vs 1% in a bank Reviewed on: 14th June 2021

Great results and Customer Care

Frequent updates on progression of the various portfolios, updates on where and which type of investments my money is going. see constant increases in value, which i'm happy to about. Great introductory offer also. I'm a fan and would reccomend. Even got my missesinvolved. Better returns than the current bank savings accounts. One more thing, access to your money! 3 working days, it normally takes to get money out to your bank - others like moneybox take bloody forever! Reviewed on: 16th January 2020
