Review of the Shawbrook Bank, Loans:

Finally! a bank that judges fairly.

5
I have been turned down for credit to consolidate my debt for over 5 years. Having got into financial difficulty in 2014 due to unforeseen circumstances no one would touch me and this I understand it got to a point where I couldn’t even afford food. But with hard work and time I pulled myself out the gutter and now earn 50k a year but still the banks wouldn’t help me with a loan unless it was around 49.9% apr, even though I haven’t defaulted since 2014 which I just could not understand. Then I found Shawbrook bank, they offered me a loan of 10k over 5 years at 9%apr I was over the moon and they made it so quick and easy. I’ve now consolidated all my debts and also save over £1000 a month as a result. I have never been financially in a better position and it’s all thanks to Shawbrook, Amazingly they gave me my 1st sleepless night in 5 years. I cannot thank them enough.
