Absolute joke of a company

Absolute joke of a company, I sent them numerous bank statements, they did a hard credit search and then declined me, avoid at all costs, a waste of a full day of my time

Why doing a hard search when you can’t…

Why doing a hard search when you can’t offer a credit. Why can’t you be like other providers who offers soft search. You’re just messing up people credit by doing hard search especially when you know you can’t offer credits. Appalling. Avoid this company

Polar credit are amazing

Polar credit are amazing. There interest rates are really good. They don’t over charge you for what you borrow. They are very relaxed on payments which make it very easy to pay back.

Not a great experience Computer says no attitude

Not a great experience. I applied for a running credit account with, that was declined but as an alternative was offered a £150 loan with cashasap, a sister company.

Logged into try to use this option and their website crashed so was unable to follow through. I started a new application which was declined. They have advised that they cannot reinstate the original offer and I’ve left with a hard credit search and no loan .

Poor customer experience and customer service. Don’t use them based on this experience.

They made a hard search on my credit…

They made a hard search on my credit file, yet after filling in my information, I was sent directly (no refusal message, no message to explain) to a page listing lenders I could apply to. So they made a hard search while offering me no credit, while apparently being a direct lender. Steer clear

Polar Credit

On one good experience l would rate this website as ok to begin with logging in and receiving payment but when repayment is due would you kindly like someone coming to your premises and asking for the payment when it’s website states payment can be made via banking card or payment on line .

Hi Kerry,

We are shocked to read your review as payment is only made by collection from your debit card, online or by bank transfer.

We can assure you that no one related to Polar Credit has ever visited your premises, however we are concerned that you thought this was the case.

Please could you contact our team and we can investigate this for you.

Kind regards,
Polar Credit
