Ridiculous interest

Took a short term loan as I was short on money due to being furloughed. The interest rate is extremely high and I’m still paying it off.

Easy to apply, Easy to pay

It was really easy to apply even with my bad credit history, quick loan payment to me, easy to pay back with the caller coming to my house each week, low payments, interest was not very high but not very low but it was fine as a quick money maker.

Pretty reasonable to customers

Paying the loans back seems so simple but not

Don't touch this company

Initially veryou friendly, but then pressure you too take out more, they take the affordability on your original application even if circumstances have changed and when you make a formal complaint you get no response. Don't touch them

Being skint 3/4 days after payday is a real killer. How is one supposed to live without being able to provide yourself with the basic needs ‘Food, Warm & Shelter’? Well.. Being egible to take out a loan with Provident Personal Credit when I was a low point financially helped me turn my money situation around. I took out a £500 on a agreement of a monthly repayment of £25 to help me get myself back on my feet and I can honestly say they did just that! :)

I took out a Provident loan in 2015 & it was organised through someone else. The first contact I had with the agent was when she came to give me the money & sign the agreement. I was given £700 & my repayment was £1200 over twelve months. I paid on time for 5/6 months then I became ill & unable to work. I was struggling to even pay my rent & although I had informed my agent about my situation, I began to get texts & letters saying that my loan was going to head office. This was worrying & stressful for me & I then received a letter to say that Provident had sold my outstanding balance to a different company. My experience has been very rushed & pressurised. I felt like I personally let the agent down & annoyed them. Although it was easy to get the loan, I would not recommend Provident because of the high interest & general feel of the company.

I needed a short term loan as my car blew up at a very difficult time, I don't have a wonderful credit rating, and knew I was in an unfortunate position. I contacted Provident and was approved straight away! A day later a very nice, helpful agent came to my house, confirmed my identity, confirmed I could meet my repayments, and was provided with my loan! 2 days later I have my new car! Very efficient and understanding at a difficult time! I would definitely recommend Provident to anyone! Excellent service!

I will never do business with you again reason being I had no choice but to miss one week payment off both my loans 1 I pay weekly and the other bi weekly now the manager said I can't pay full payment. I must split the weekly payment over both my loans to cover arrears. How on earth is that possible it's only going to put me in more arrears. Anyone with very limited education can see this but not the manager.hes about as bright as a blackout. Safe to say I won't be doing anymore business with these people again
