Just had a call from this so called company with in house lenders told me I had been accepted for a loan. Kept saying they needed my card details. I told the bloke I needed to confirm who they were. He told me that I could do know but if I put the phone down to him I would loose the loan and have a black mark out against my credit file. I started asking who the lender was and all his reply was in
House. At the same time I asked his what the repYments were to his response was how much can you afford. Very odd as he should be telling me terms .again he said he needed my card details to confirm who I was. At this point I put the phone down. They called a further 3 times intimidating me to give details or my credit file would be marked. Marked for what I have not done anything. I will be forwarding information onto financial ombudsmen.

Only searches are recorded on credit files so the guy was talking some absolute BS.

Well done for not giving card details.

That sort of blatant lie proves what scammers this lot are.

For anybody who has been unfortunate enough to have money taken from their bank accounts by Loanspotter.
I have had the same experience and did write to them as per their terms and conditions, I also contacted the FCA but will not investigate them on an individual basis however if enough people contact the FCA they will investigate Loanspotter and hopefullly close them down but more people need to report to the FCA about this company.
