Has anybody been pre-approved with Tide yet? It states on the app that they will contact us once pre-approved but no idea when this process will begin or if it has already begun?
Tired of getting ‘good news’ just to wait around until a Monday to be yet again disappointed and have to wait and wait over and over each week.

Asked the chat on the app if their was a time and i got a response saying "thanks for waiting and all that. Plus that they are trying to raise the funds 0 -
I would have thought that having the capital to service the loans would have been a prerequisite of BBB accreditation? I guess not.sam8787 said:Plus that they are trying to raise the fundsI had assumed that was why it was taking Metro Bank so long to get approved.0 -
It does seem strange0

Allegedly saw a guy on Twitter who's applied via TIDE but not sure how true it is. They are opening applications in batches according to their social media response / FAQ so I can only assume this guy was one of the first people in the first batch ?ctf123 said:Has anybody been pre-approved or do you know of anyone?
Can't understand the whole capital required thing either as surely the funds are coming from central government? Or are they expecting banks to lend from their funds??0 -
The funds are from each individual bank. The Government just gaurentee the loans0
