CFO lending were there when I needed it Kevin Webster

I was shocked to find a CFO Lending record on my Credit Report even though I have never heard of them! Countless phone calls, emails later they tell me that it's up to the police to sort it out, all they did was lend money. "Didn't you do any checks" I asked "all the information you have on record about me is incorrect." "Yes we do checks, you need to report it to the police we are not at fault" was their reply. How can a company like this lend money using incorrect details to anybody then let their victims suffer and say it's not their fault. Surely something needs to be done with this company!

Applied for a £200 loan they said sorry they cant yet still tryed to take £399 back on the day i said i rang my bank they saw that i hadn't took any loan....DO NOT GO WITH THEM IF THEIRS ANY GOOD REVIEWS IT WILL BE FROM THEMSELFS!

Totally awful, my partner has a dmp set up but cfo took all the money exatly when he got paid and left him with nothing. We are fighting to get the money back. We will win, I have threatened them with the ombudsman as they had no reason to take the money. The dmp firm are totally useless also as they should not let this happen.

Applied for a £300 loan on 12th December around 1pm, was told i was approved and money would be paid in by 4pm. Nothing arrived. Next day (today 13th December) received a call saying they needed to speak to me before approving the loan, fair enough, called them and confirmed my name & personal details. Received an email stating once again the funds would be in my account at 4pm via Faster Payments. Now 7pm and nothing, phoned them and got through, the girl hung up on me. Phoned again, once more phoned picked up and hung up on. Now tried calling 7 times for the last 2 hours and no answer. Absolutely useless, ignorant, shameful excuse for a company. I will do everything within my power to ensure this company is on the receiving end of a winding up petition, wrong person to take the michael out of.

I have had a loan with this company for about 12 months , i did have some issue with paying and eventually decided to get hold of my debts and speak to a debt solutions company . They sorted my debts out that were about £6000 , all of my creditors stopped interest and excepted the reduced amounts except CFO who have been difficult all the way through .I am at the end of my payment plan and all creditors have been paid , but am stil getting letters and texts from CFO saying i still owe money . I would never advise anyone to take any form of loan up with them as they are sharks , they do not send regular statements to show what has been paid and will never give you a straight answer as to what might be outstanding , texts showing amounts owed change from day to day some times low amounts some times higher. Don't get a loan with them they trick you into thinking that they are giving you a good service becuase they will give you a loan even if you have bad credit . I have had nothing but issue with this company and after a year of which the loan should be paid they are still saying there is money owing - i only borrowed £200

I wish I had read these reviews before taking out a loan with them. As wit others, I needed to seek advice regarding my finances and as a result cancelled my CPA and attempted to negotiate a repayment plan. They then proceeded to raid my account on a daily basis, despite my withdrawal of authority. This continued for several months despite my bank refunding the amounts and would still be continuing today had I not closed my bank account. I wrote to them on numerous occasions but didn't even have the courtesy of a reply. Finally contacted the ombudsman and had my complaint fully upheld. They have ordered CFO to pay me compensation (yet to be received), remove all interest accrued and agree a payment plan which I can afford. One note worthy of mention for others in the same predicament. The terms of their own contract states "you authorise us until further notice by you and provided we have given you appropriate notice, to take a payment by debiting the account at any time after the Payment Date, for the payment of the Total Amount Payable together with any default interest.") I''m not a legal expert but would suggest if they continue to raid peoples bank accounts after the individual has withdrawn authority they have broken their own contract making it unenforceable. Please, please, please avoid this company at all costs. 19 of the 20 reviews on here are negative for a reason.

I had a short term cash flow problem and was on the internet looking for the money to tide me over, I was directed through to the CFO website through a broker, loan approved and transferred to my account within 48 hors for no fee. Unfortunately with a poor credit rating I am restricted at moment to high interest loan companies. CFO were transparent about their fees, their customer service advisor was very helpful and they took the repayment on the day they said they would. Can't really ask for more than that.

DONT WASTE YOUR TIME.THEY WILL APPROVE YOUR LOAN BUT WAIT 24HOURS ONLY TO BE TOLD IT GOT DECLINED.MADE ME FEEL LIKE A CRIMINAL.EMAILED UPPORT TWICE AND NEVER RESPONDD.ILL TAKE MY CASH SOMEWHERE ELSE.GO DIE

Have got into financial difficulties and have contacted my creditors with a letter of explanation and budget sheet. All of my creditors have been great EXCEPT CFO. They will only agree to a plan if you send them a full bank statement.....yeah right. Have spoke with my bank & cancelled my CPA, little girl at CFO was unprofessional, rude was obviously on some sort of power trip and it would appear that she has a chip on her shoulder. i am now taking this to OFT as i have offered but they won't accept as a repayment plan and said they will charge £8+ per day. Hellbent on getting them shut down then let the silly little girl see what it is like to have no money.

I APPLIED FOR A LOAN WHICH WAS APPROVED. HOWEVER, THE MONEY HAS NEVER ARRIVED IN MY ACCOUNT. ACCORDING TO CFO I GAVE THE WRONG SORT SORT CODE SO THE RESPONSIBILITY RESTS WITH ME. DESPITE CHASING FOR 21 DAYS AS TO WHERE THE MONEY WENT ALL I GET WHEN I SPEAK TO THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE TEAM IS "I GAVE THE WRONG INFORMATION SO RESPONSIBILITY RESTS WITH ME". I THINK THEY EMPLOY MORANS WHO JUST READ FROM A SCRIPTED SHEET ON HOW TO DEAL WITH CUSTOMERS WITH PROBLEMS BECAUSE IF YOU ASK A QUESTION YOU JUST GET TOLD "WE ARE A COMPANY AND NOT A BANK AND IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO PROVIDE THE CORRECT DETAILS". WHEN ASKED IF I CAN SPEAK TO A MANAGER OR THEIR ACCOUNTS DEPARTMENT WAS ADVISED THAT IS NOT AN OPTION BECAUSE THE MONEY HAS NOT BOUNCED BACK AND THEY CAN DO NOTHING IT IS MY RESPONSIBILITY. I HAVE USED THIS COMPANY BEFORE SO WHY WHEN THEY DOING THEIR CHECKS DID THEY NOT REALISE I GAVE THE WRONG DETAILS? WHICH, BY THE WAY, I DOUBT I DID.

I have recently been approved by this company after giving all my details they required online and then over the phone they said theyd contact me ive had no contact went to check my emails and noticed theres isnt there after typing into my email search the sender pops up yet no email is there after they verified it this has left me weary as I have given all my details to this company and after reading these reviews feel uneasy I also can not find a way to log in to view my "application"
