    alot of people pay the fee and the loan never materialises, you should never be asked for an upfront fee by a reputable buisness.

    I paid the fee about two years ago and still no loan. They were rude, unhelpful and basically a load of tosh! Give them a wide berth! x

    Really just take a read of all the threads about how brokers have taken money off people and no loan is ever given.

    They then spend months and months trying to get their fees back, cost more expense. TBH I would 100% give any firm who wants a brokers fee a miss.

    Oh and congrats on getting the Champ Lge spot next season.

  • PHEW! after reading the posts I have just cancelled my debit card to stop this dirty robbing company from getting their hands on my hard earned and much needed cash thankfully I told them the funds wouldnt be available til 1st of next month, I am not a stupid woman normally but when faced with unexpected funeral costs after losing my dad recently I wasnt thinking clearly when they rang me to say I had definatley been approved for a loan even tho I expressed huge surprise that this was the case,after reading this forum and several others I feel I have had a lucky escape !!
