The only place to go

I had not heard of Ratesetter when they popped up on a comparison website for a personal loan but I am glad they did!! They offered me a great rate on the size loan I needed, payments are taken when expected, no unnecessary spam emails or mail. The whole process has been so easy to navigate as well as being easy to understand the whole way through! My first choice if I ever needed a other loan Reviewed on: 12th March 2023

Easy bake loan with an overpay facility.

5
Found the company through the Martin Lewis site, MoneySavingExpert. After putting in a few details, I could easily see the costings of the required loan, both monthly outlay and total cost, as well as the actual APR. This APR rate was the lowest on offer at the time and also guaranteed by Ratesetter, unlike many others, which were representative rates only. The Ratesetter website was clear and easy to use with plenty of communication given throughout the setting up of the loan. A free overpay facility is also available should I choose to use it. I am midway through paying back the loan and couldn't be happier with the experience. It has been 5* from the beginning. Reviewed on: 12th March 2023

It was great to get in touch with RateSetter, it was important to see that they trusted me differently from 'my bank'. My 20 years excellent credentials were respected and acknowledged, I will borrow again with them if I ever need to Reviewed on: 12th March 2023
