    Does anyone else find these text speak posts incredibly difficult to read? What does 'ur' mean?
    I used to think that good grammar is important, but now I know that good wine is importanter.

    It means the person typing it is about 11yrs old.

    The worse thing is that they simply don't see anything wrong with typing like that, as if it is normal.

    I'm not trying to knock the person writing it but you can see the educational pre-requisites for employment at loans4sure are not very high.
  • Hi, I'm new to the forum but have read it a lot. I applied to loans4sure for a loan and after paying my 49.95 and sending back the paper work, they assured me i had been accepted, then I read the posts from all the people who have been stung by these people (wish I'd read ir before!). So I rang them this morning, the again assured me that the money would be in my account on Tuesday 25th,
    I told the girl I spoke to that I had been reading reviews about them and that I hadn't found anyone who had said a good thing about them, she said they probably had all been declined because of a discrepancy on their application and were unhappy about this (don't believe that) and my application was fine and had been approved, the money will in my account on Tuesday, so lets see what Tuesday brings. I told her if it wasn't I would be taking the appropriate action, she again assured me the money would be there - watch this space!
  • So gaylejazz, did the money arrive in the end?
  • no didn't get money from loans4sure (or not so sure as the case may be!) they did what was expected and after all the reassurrances, low and behold they found something wrong with my application, sent a form for me to fill out giving permission for them to do a credit search, I told them no and that I wanted my money back, also told them I have reported them to trading standards as they make false claims that your loan has been excepted and your application is absolutely fine, the money will be in your account on a particular day and then they don't deliver. I said it seems 90% of peoples applications seem to have something wrong judging by the reviews (funny that) and they don't get their loans either. The girl I spoke to just stuttered a bit and said if I filled in the credit search form they would find me another lender, I told her not to bother and just to give me my money back, she said it was non refundable, I have now reported them and will be contacting the financial ombudsman aswell.

    Good, stick with it and I hope you get your money back.

    Not so sure about the 90% though, I would put it between 99.999999% and 100% who never get the money
  • Your probably right about the 100%, I haven't actually heard about anyone who has actually received a loan from them yet, but I will stick with it, these people make me really angry, they take full advantage of vulnerable people in desperate times and don't give a damn if they take their last penny when giving them false hope. So if anyone out there has actually got a loan through Loans4Sure it would be interesting to hear about it.
  • well u r doing right thing!Or better sue them and putt them in prison where they belong to be!
