This company is just taking money from customers account without an agreement which is fraud. The Company request Bank details from me to check my information when I tried to ask for a loan and then decided to put a subscription on my account without my knowledge taking £19.99 from my account which I am not happy about

How is this fraudulent company still operating? They have taken 2 payments of £19.99 from me now without my consent. I emailed them and they said they are processing me a refund which would take 7 days.. that was 14 days ago!!! Stay well clear from them

Shocking company
After reading the reviews I’ve came to notice I’m not the only person who was scammed out of £19.99 after requesting 9p.
The notification that you’re charging 9p was bold enough. Strange how the £19.99 wasn’t?
I’m honestly shocked at how you’re still running a company given the amount of 1 star ratings and extremely poor reviews.
Bizarre and I want a refund.

I was told a 0.09 pence charge would be taken from my bank, however when I checked you had taken 19.99 and left me in financial difficulty with 3 children. Emailed them about a refund and there answer is the 19.99 charge is clear when you sign up, but it can't be that clear since I'm not the only one who didn't see it

Absolutely scammers
Same thing happened to me. They told me that they gonna charge me 9 pence ( 0.09 pounds) for checking my card ( by the way, a serious lender can check a card by charging you 0.00 pounds, they ask you those details only for verification purpose), and after 2 days they charged me an additional 19.99 pounds
THEY NEVER TOLD ME ABOUT ANY SUBSCRIPTION WHEN I ENTERED MY DETAILS
They just rely on the fact that when you tick the box of accepting the terms and conditions you agree with this subscription. THIS IS WRONG!!! Any kind of subscription has to be asked VERY CLEAR when a lender or any other entity ask for it.
Be advised that this is a MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION and if you don't take the necessary measures they gonna charge you every month with 19.99 pounds
SHOCKING SERVICE!!!

AVOID!!! SCAMMERS!!!
Awful company. Clearly they are scamming and misleading vulnerable people to make themselves a quick few £££. They don’t reply to emails and a phone number is close to impossible to find. They have the audacity to reply to other posts on here saying they are a legit company, and don’t charge anything without permission but it’s just a copy and pasted message to all replies. Clearly by the hundreds of bad reviews they do not make it clear that they will be charging you £19.99. They did make it clear there would be a £0.09 charge, but wrongly lead me and hundreds of others to believe that this will release funds for a short term or payday loan. Very misleading, they know exactly what they are doing. Hopefully they are investigated and shut down very soon.
If they have charged you contact your bank and request a reversal - Explain it’s led you to financial difficulties and how misleading this company are, also ask them to check trust pilot reviews. My bank reversed the transaction.
