Love this ‘Line of Credit’ product

Signing up with Elfin was a breeze. App works seemlesy. I love this product and the concept behind it… needed several hundred pounds 2 days before payday and with a credit card, the money transfer would have been 5%… with Elfin I paid, 54pence + the £700.00 that I had borrowed…

Better than a credit card

This is a lot cheaper than a credit card. Your payment is shown immediately and when you withdraw from your account it is also in your bank strait away.
Recommend thus product 100%

I checked my credit report after and they don't even do a soft search like they say, the decision also happens far to quickly like 1 second after applying. Just feels like they just accept and reject randomly. Just going to edit this for the reply. Over a week later and still no "soft search" on my report. I check my report regularly. I have no missed payments and my credit utilization is below 25%.

Dear Jordan, thank you for your feedback on this. Your application was made on 12 April and so the soft search will not be visible on your credit file on the day of your application, but is generally visible a few days later, which explains why you couldn't see it on your file on the day you made the application. This delay is due to the way in which Credit Reference Agencies work and is unfortunately out of our control. We’re so sorry that we couldn’t help you right now. We take into account a number of factors when accepting borrowers onto our platform, factors such as credit history, payment behaviour, and individual financial situations. We recommend reviewing your credit report regularly, making timely payments and maintaining a low credit utilisation ratio. Let us know if you need any further assistance.

Hello, thank you for getting in touch. We can confirm that the calculations you have provided above are incorrect as we would not charge this amount for borrowing £500. Please can you get in touch with us at support@elfinmarket.com and we will be happy to help explain your total repayments. You can also use the repayment calculator on the website, just input the APR you have been given and the credit limit offer and it will work out the correct repayments. We look forward to hearing from you.

Easy to use

Easy to use, cash straight to bank in seconds. Good rate of interest, half of ccard interest for me. Easy to use app, can see how much interest you will pay and it’s recalculated if you pay a bit extra off.

Beware!!

Be ready to face worst customer care service that going to completely ignore you for months even you do mulitple escalations. You will be left with no answers. There's a lot of other good comapny. It's doesn't worth to sign up for this hassels and incompetence. It's not even ready to be in market.
*update*
Since they responded with only 50% of the story. So I am editing my review in response of that.
1. I do requested for a chargeback and they took two months to process it.
2. Now the scary part: They have taken out £140.39 from my account on 2nd February 2024 and when I asked what for was it. They put the blame on marchent and top that were charging interest on it. I checked with merchant they confirmed me they didn't take any money out. Then I figure out they manually do the transections!!!!! I sent 10/20 emails to resolve this matter for two months and they did nothing. Once I put the review here in Trustpilot. They refunded my £140.39 and added bunch of fake reviews here ;) to make it up for it.
3. I closed my account and they didn't gave back my £0.69 to my original bank account !!! xD
So guys there's are plenty of other options that provides much professional customer service.

Dear Mojidul, we are very sorry that you have not had a good experience with us. In response to your review, you made a non- refundable booking using your Elfin Card and wanted our help to get a refund. Our Disputes Team, responded to your emails within a timely manner and advised you that Disputes can take around 6 weeks. Unfortunately, our card provider informed us that your chargeback was rejected and we were unable to help you further with this. We trust this clarifies the matter, but don't hesitate if you have any questions.

I am very pleased to have discovered Elfin Market because they offer such a helpful service giving me peace of mind. The facility of a cash transfer to my bank account in a few moments is very useful indeed and their interest rate is competitive.

Very convenient.

Very convenient way to get credit although the interest is a little high for me but maybe that’s just me. It’s worth 5* just for the convenience.
