While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

Possibly the best in the business

Very easy to deal with either online or by telephone, extremely accommodating no matter how bad your credit score.. Would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who need some short term cash.

Took my information and ran

Took my information and immediately rerouted me to a completely different website. No confirmation or denial of the loan. I wouldn’t mind a simple denial. I don’t trust the lack of communication with my information.

Hi Shawn,

Thanks for your feedback.

We're a lender, not a broker, so wouldn't pass on your details or redirect you to another website. Are you able to contact us on freephone 08002061560 or help@piggy-bank.co.uk, so that we can investigate this further?

Thanks,

Hannah

Good experience at first but 3rd time…

Good experience at first but 3rd time unlucky.
Applied early morning and waited all day for a decline at 4.45pm. Had to send email for an answer....lucky for me an hour later I was approved elsewhere and funds sent.
My previous payments were in full and on time so not sure why.

Hi Carol,

Thanks for leaving feedback.

As a responsible lender, we complete numerous checks prior to accepting an application, and lots of elements make up this assessment. Sometimes the application process can take a little longer, as these checks can take some time.

You can contact our Underwriting Team at applications@piggy-bank.co.uk if you'd like to discuss this further.

Thanks,

Hannah

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback, and I'm sorry to hear that the funds did not reach you when expected.

We aim to have the funds sent out within an hour of being accepted, but sometimes it can take a little longer. You can find out more about the application process here - https://www.piggy-bank.co.uk/how-piggy-bank-short-term-loans-work/
