Great way to purchase a new phone

5
Great way to get a new phone, interest rates are good and you can increase your payments if you like to pay off quicker. Would buy a phone again this way. Reviewed on: 2nd July 2017

Best by far

5
Ratesetter made it so easy to apply, get good rates and see what payments and when I'd be making them, taking the stress out of loan searching. It was so straight forward and avoided all the "hoops" a customer usually has to jump through in order to qualify or not as the case may be. I would definitely recommend them and having had my competitive loan over 18 months so far, rarely could you say that about other lenders. Reviewed on: 2nd July 2017

Very easy, no problems at alll

From an online search, found them to be a much better rate than your high street bank, or Sainsburys/Tesco, easy application, verification was good, no problem using again, as I have, twice Reviewed on: 2nd July 2017
