“Excellent Sevice Better than my Bank”

★★★★★

written by on 09/09/2013

Excellent Service from the customer service team. The Loan was approved in 1 working day.They called and sent me an email to confirm this. They offer me a better interest rate than my bank, which I've been with for many years and they are ever so helpful and very clear with the terms and condition. I had problems logging into my account and in 2 minutes this problem was sorted. Once you call them, you speak directly with a customer care advisor. I was so surprised that everything went through so smoothly. They are very flexible with the payment date and happy to change it to a more suitable date. Very good service and I would recommend anyone to give them a try.

“Loan success.”

★★★★★

written by on 07/09/2013

Ratesetter gave me a quick response to my application for a loan. The loan was to pay off overdraft and some card debt. Communication was by e-mail and quick. Their checks seemed robust and the interest rate given was excellent when compared to the rest of the market - including banks and other peer to peer lenders. The money arrived quickly and promptly and all information and payment dates were e-mailed to me and were easily digestible. Thanks very much.

“Simply Fantastic”

★★★★★

written by on 03/09/2013

I searched for the cheapest loan on various search engines and these came out the best. I had already seen a car I wanted so it needed to be quick and smooth and it was. Communication was clear and monies collected by direct debit on the dates set. Perfect, I would recommend them :)

“SPEEDY CASH BUT WITHOUT THE EXPENSE OF PAYDAY LOANS”

★★★★★

written by jasperstink on 28/08/2013

I CONSIDERED HAVING A PAYDAY LOAN, THEN DECIDED AGAINST WHAN I BECAME AWARE OF THE INTEREST. I SUCCUMBED TO THE FACT THAT I WOULD HAVE TO APPLY TO A MAINSTREAM LENDER AND THAT THIS WOULD TAKE SOME TIME TO CREDIT MAY ACCOUNT ONCE APPROVED. I THEN FOUND RATESETTER!!! THEY PROVIDED ME WITH A LOAN THAT WAS APPROVED AS QUICKLY AS ANY PAYDAY LOAN BUT AT A RATE WHICH WOULD COMPETE WITH ANY HIGH STREET LENDER. GREAT SERVICE.

“Clicks beat bricks”

★★★★★

written by NorbertColon on 12/08/2013

The product is better and cheaper than the high street offers. Better for allowing early repayment. Cheaper in rate and my time. My main impression is how useless my own (large high-street) bank's marketing is - even when it's making an effort to improve.

“fast reliable great”

★★★★★

written by emmabarber on 09/08/2013

We thought we didnt have an option to lend money. We found this company. It was as easy as filling in a form. We received many emails informing us of the process. For example a decision would be made in so many hours. I then recieved an email to say the money would hit our account in a certain time. It took the stress out of borrowing money. It has given us chance to buy a family caravan. The re payments come out of my bank once a month and is affordable for our family. I would definitely recommend this company to friends and family.

“Great way to borrow”

★★★★★

written by on 07/08/2013

The application process was very straight-forward and the decision was made within the advertised time-frame. I really like the idea of crowd-funding, especially in the current financial climate where banks seem to have stopped lending if they see even the slightest risk. When I first heard of RateSetter through a Radio 4 money program, I realised that there were better ways of doing business. The fact that the interest rates are so competitive, and the repayment terms allow for early repayment without penalty are both fantastic features. In due course, I hope to invest myself and look forward to my funds being matched against another borrower's requirements.

It seems you have to be resident in the UK. Here is a snipped I found when I searched for the answer. 1) In order to lend out your cash via RateSetter or Zopa, you have to be aged at least 18 and a UK resident who is registered with HMRC for tax. You’ll also need to have a UK bank account. Neither Zopa nor RateSetter will accept applications from business lenders.
