Better than a bank

I found the service to be straight forward, quick and very easy. The rate offered was better than my bank. I was totally satisfied with the service and would use it again if the need arose. I would recommend it gladly to my friends and family. Keep up the good work. Reviewed on: 30th June 2017

I have only Borrowed as yet, but fully intent on saving an allowing others to take advantage of this, I love the full control and the feeling of part of a group rather than simply a customer. I always recommend this service and company to friends relatives. Keep on doing what your doing Rate Setter. Reviewed on: 30th June 2017

Quite Simply, Could Not Be Improved

5
We fell in love with a garden Pavillion at an RHS Flower Show, which at £5,000 wasn't something we could buy on a whim. We were offered the money interest free from Ratesetter... there must be a catch? No! Just a transparent process of 12 simple equal payments alongside an easy-to-use website which showed exactly what we had paid and how much was left and what date it would come out of our account. Paper statements every couple of months and a final letter to say when we had paid it off. If I was ever to take another loan out I wouldn't bother going anywhere else, just straight to Ratesetter. Thank you Reviewed on: 30th June 2017
