Simple, easy, reassuring

The loan was easy to apply for and check, there was no pressure, the whole process from checks to application to receiving the loan was stress free. Information and updates were helpful and it was so easy to check on the amount and update/pay more off the amount of possible. The emails were helpful and the advice good, the level and help of the communication made the whole progress very easy, I will be using them again! Reviewed on: 11th June 2020

Excellent, professional service

5
Ratesetter base their analysis on real-life potential of the borrower fulfilling repayment and the subsequent return to the investor. This is hugely more beneficial to the borrower demonstrating their eligibility and the investor judging the risk. This is more fair, transparent and mathematically sound than I've experienced with the banks, which rely on simple algorithms. Recommend very highly! Reviewed on: 11th June 2020
