⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ David secured a better deal 💰

Worked with YouLend via David Barrie , who helped secure a stronger deal than an existing offer from another lender. He arranged higher funding with a lower fixed fee through an alternative card machine provider. Same day. Clear communication and efficient process throughout.

Hounding for additional payments even though I’m ahead of my repayments. Avoid!

I took a loan out through eBay and the experience hasn’t been good. I agreed to replay 24% of my item sales. I sell high ticket items but inconsistently so every other week I get a email demanding additional payments even though I’ve repaid 83% of my balance within 4 months of the 9 month loan agreement.

This company adds a fixed cost on top of the loan. If I repay in 4 months I don’t receive any interest back even though I’ve repaid in half the duration. Basically do your self a favour and take out a traditional loan and if you choose to repay early save some money in interest and avoid the hounding emails!
