Checked a few lenders before settling on this one

I went through a comparison site and looked at four lenders before picking this. Slingo had the lowest rate I could find for my credit history, and the application was quicker than the big banks. The loan is for a new kitchen and I've been paying it back on time since. Customer service answered my one question within the hour and that was that. Happy with the choice.

needed to consolidate a few cards

I had three credit cards with different rates and wanted them under one payment. Slingo offered a consolidation loan that cleared all three balances directly. I work in IT so I looked at the terms properly. The arrangement fee was transparent and the monthly payment fits my budget.

Approved fast but the rate stung a bit

Loan was approved in like twenty minutes which was mad. Money came through the next day. The interest is higher than I thought it would be though so check the figures.

Needed a loan for the car repairs

I needed to cover a big bill for the car repairs after the MOT failed, and I didn't want to be stuck waiting around. Applied on the site one evening, uploaded my payslips and they came back with a yes by the next day. The money came through quick and the repayments come out on the date they said. Simple and no fuss.

Sorted, though you need to read the small print

Honestly it's done what I needed. Borrowed for a van repair, got the money in a couple of days and the monthly payments are fine. The small print on late payment fees is quite a lot to wade through, so read it before you sign.

Helpful when my boiler packed up

When my boiler failed in December I needed funds quickly, and I was grateful to find this lender. The form was clear and the staff on the phone were patient with my questions about repayments. The money was paid into my account within two working days, which I thought very reasonable.

Cheaper than my credit card for a big spend

I used the loan to cover a new laptop and some work equipment, and the monthly figure works out much cheaper than putting it on my card at the interest rate it charges. The total cost was shown clearly before I agreed. The money reached my account within a day and I've been paying it off by standing order ever since.

money landed same day, bit of a wait on the first call

The money landed in my account the same afternoon which was the bit I cared about most, though getting through to someone about the repayment date took a while on hold. Paid off on time since so no real bother. Good enough for a small loan, nothing to write home about.

Got approved on my lunch break

Applied for a small loan to pay for my driving lessons and honestly the whole thing was done before my sandwich was. Money hit my account that evening. Only gripe is the app keeps logging me out but it's fine.

not the cheapest rate but fair

Having worked in financial services for years I knew what to look for, and the rate here is a touch higher than the best deals on the market. The affordability checks were thorough, which I respect even if it held things up. Funds arrived on the expected day. Still, I'd have liked the terms summarised more clearly up front.

Still using them, no complaints

Been with them since my divorce when I needed a bit of help with the mortgage shortfall. Paying it back through the app works fine and I can see the balance any time. Would go with them again.

Been a customer for years

Have used this lender on and off for about a decade, mainly for car finance. The process is always the same and always clear. Repayments have never caused me any bother and the rates have stayed sensible.

compared to my bank, much simpler

I'd only ever borrowed through my bank before, so I had a look at a few lenders first. The Slingo form was a lot shorter than my bank's and the decision came back faster. The only thing that slowed me down was they wanted a second document uploaded, which took me a day to find. Otherwise fine.

Needed cash fast for rent

Needed the money quick for a rent deposit so I went with this. Applied at night, got the email in the morning and it was in my account by lunch. Super easy, no faff.

Quick and easy, would use again

Really easy process, filled it in on the bus and was approved before I got home. Money was in my account by the morning. Repayments come out on the date they say they will. Nothing to complain about, did what I needed.

found them easier than my building society

Compared with my building society, which wanted me to come into a branch with a pile of paperwork, this was far simpler. I filled everything in from my armchair and they came back to me the next morning. The monthly payments are clear and I haven't had any trouble. I'd say they're well organised, and I'm grateful for it.

A reasonable alternative to the high street

I'd always gone to my building society for a loan, but they were slow this time, so I tried Slingo instead. The form was simple enough and I did not need to visit a branch. The money came through the next working day and I have had no trouble with the repayments since.

First loan went through quicker than i thought

I took out a small personal loan through Slingo last month to cover a new boiler. The application took about ten minutes on my phone and I had a decision the same afternoon. The money landed in my account the next working day, which was exactly what I needed.

Used them for a car loan a few times now

I've had three loans with them over the years, the most recent for a second hand car. Each time the application is the same straightforward form and the money arrives when they say it will. This time the statement took a bit longer to come through than I expected and I had to ring to ask where it was. They sorted it out in one call though, and the rest has been spot on.

Switched my overdraft to a loan

I've been a mortgage broker for a while so I know my way around lending. I took out a personal loan here to clear an expensive overdraft. The approval was quick and the funds went straight to my current account. The repayment schedule matched the quote exactly.
