I tried different banks including my own for a small personal loan for a car with most wanting 29.9% apr on a £1500 loan over 2 years. Found ratesetter offering 11%-far FAR better than anything else I could find. Was a bit hesitant as I had never heard of them before but looking at their online reviews and trust pilot status I went ahead and applied as instead of £600+ interest i was paying around £180 over two years (sounded too good to be true!) Application was simple &straightforward. Applied friday, received a text to say I was approved early on Saturday and loan in my account by 2pm Monday. Delighted and would recommend to absolutely anyone!! Reviewed on: 29th June 2017

No fuss trustworthy loan

After finding that my DD for my bank credit card had mostly been swollowed up by sky high bank rates ... I was really upset and looked around for a better deal... I found rate setter, which unlike my bank set everything out in a way that was easy to understand. I had the loan payed of in under a year... it was such a relief and saved me a packet in bank fee's.
