Absolutely Seamless experience

From the initial phone call into Bibby Financial Services to today being accepted as a customer has been an absolute seamless exercise. We were assigned Steve Taylor as our BDM to go through the process.

Steve is a dream to work alongside and his guidance is second to none.

There have been some hiccups during our collaboration with Bibby Financial Services, but Margaret Smith has always been there for us, her patience and understanding helped us continue, and 8 years later to still go ahead with Bibby and more important with our business.

Mixed performance Zero and Five

This is a hard one as a particuar issue followed an increasing number of corporate box ticking policies that seemed aimed at making life more difficult for its customers while providing, one assumes, some minor benefit to the company - it has became this way over the past 12 months or so, too many people sitting in a centralised back office somewhere creating policies that make life difficult for those in the real world.
My rating would have been no stars of it was not for the team members that we regularly work with who totally saved the day, and appreciated the serious challenges we faced from some arbitary and unamed change in fund transfers which allowed Barclays to held a very large sum of our money for more than 10 days while they checked out some unamed issue?Even though we have been transfering funds between the same accounts for more than 21 years!

People like Jordan Cheng, Helen Arrowsmith and Tom in Forex are however the heroes of the story helping escalate this gross, unexplained and clearly unecessary injustice, while looking at potential work-arounds as a fall back. They kept me on board when I was ready to say enough we are taking our business elsewhere!
The Bibby team members in Adderbury that we deal with are true diamonds. They would get six stars if that was possible.

Sometimes in a day there are issues that need to be addressed to balance the account. Nayan Patel has always through good communication managed to resolve these. I have found that having a good working relationship pays dividends in that it achieves the end goals quietly and efficiently.

Once again

Once again, I would like to thank Bibby and the team, especially, Jez Knowles who helped us during our transitioning phase of the company. Jez and his team were there every step of the way with the right advice and guidance, helping us to complete this process efficiently, accurately and speedily.
We would highly recommend Bibby to businesses in need of invoice factoring.

Fabulous Team

Carolyn Bell and Leah Mortan have been fantastic with getting us set up on their facility. Their knowledge of the systems and explanations have helped us to no end, and their continued support and aftercare is amazing.

They are always on hand if we need them. Highly recommend and look forward to continuing to work together.

AfterCare (NW) Ltd have worked with Dylan and his team from the Bibby Yorkshire office for the past 15 years.
The Company have experienced an excellent service and at times when we have struggled Dylan has always given his full support. We can now go it alone and I strongly feel that AfterCare would not be in this position without him.

Absolutely awful service

Absolutely awful service, extremely aggressive attitude towards clients my initial contact was very nice however the case handler after was very rude and abrupt, ive also just found out they have put a charge against my business! We had no money outstanding and when we decided Bibby wasn't for us anymore they did this causing issue for future business finance
As soon as I said this service didn't suit our needs our handlers attitude went from bad to worse! Putting a charge on someone's business without their knowledge is terrible customer service! I would never recommend them to anyone!

We cannot thank Bibby and Aaron enough for the service we have received since we have been trading alongside them, Aaron's help and advice has provided the ideal set up to enable us to continue and grow our company, his input and guidance has made a completely new concept to us understandable, usable and a key aspect in the day to day running of the company.
We would also like to thank Dale, again for his eagerness to help and advice us on every aspect of using Bibby's finance facilities.
