Good bank with good customer service

Got a Loan through Tesco Bank. Did it all online and it was really easy. Had to speak with them a couple of times on the phone and both times the advisor was friendly and got the issue resolved on my first call. Reviewed on: 31st May 2017

Rip-off Pet Insurance Renewals

1
Paid into my insurance policy for a long time - wasn't a great one as it only covered conditions up to £4k and it cost quite a bit to do that. Claimed about £4k last year for my dog's lymphoma. Just had the renewal through - gone up from £160 (which was too much) to a whacking rip off amount of £287.00. Absolute con for a low quality policy. My dog is now uninsured and as he's 10 no-one will cover him. Avoid - might look good at the start but once you've claimed, you're trapped as the price is hiked but you can't leave or the condition isn't covered... Will never, ever use Tesco again. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2017

Easy process

5
I took out a loan with Tesco Bank last year and was surprised at how easy the process was. I completed an application on line and had confirmation email that it had been received. I was kept up to date with the process and received the payment into my chosen bank account in a very quick turnaround time. Would definately recommend if anyone is looking for a short term loan.

Best personal loan provider

5
I was looking for a personal loan to cover for some additional house extension work.I didn't go for a home improvement loan as the personal loan appeared cheaper and dearer. I used Money supermarket website to shop for a lender. And Tesco was then offering the best rate . I rang them up and from there I got the credit in couple of days' time. There were no hassles of any additional processes or documents and they asked only the bare minimum identity documents like passport etc. The customer support was amazing too.

Requesting feedback despite declining loan

3
I applied for a loan which was declined. I don't have an issue with the decision, but I do object to receiving repeated email requests to leave feedback........ Reviewed on: 19th May 2017

Best APR

4
At the time when we were looking for a loan we found that Tesco Bank offered the lowest APR for a £15k loan over 7 years. The repayment provisions were the most favourable and Tesco got back to us extremely quickly with a positive answer. Would recommend. Reviewed on: 5th May 2017
