I fell for their scam the first time #45 then it downed; why shouldn't they just pay for the call instead of promising to refund- never got the promised refund instead incured another bill trying to claim the refund. 10 months later they wrote me as if they were another company, same story same scam. Why does the FSA allow such companies to operate??

I aggree these people are scammers... I gave them my pre-paid debt card details and then forgot to top-up... But they still kept sending me companies who could provide me a loan... It was a good thing I did not pay them their fee as all they provide was FLM, Provident, LogBook Loans, Debt Consolidation and PayDay Loans. They are rubbish, it has now been 2 months and I still not had a refund of the £41 I paid in telephone charges. I have now logged a complaint to try and get the money.

THANK GOD FOR THIS SITE, I'm so glad I checked up on this companys reputation and found this site, all these peoples comments have saved me being taken in & saved me money that we can all ill afford to lose, thankyou to all the reviews, I'll plod on without getting into more debt & make do until I fin a reputable company to get a loan from. I checked because I got ripped off a few months with an admin charge of £49 to a company that never found me a loan that was promised, I think it was Yes loans on the Net. Once bitten twice shy thankfully. x

Just had a letter from Horizon Finance, to my address but with someone elses name. Odd as we've had the house from new I thought. Called them up, to be told this number cost £1.50 a minute! Eeek! Now I have their Manchester number, I'll be able to get to the bottom of this... am I being scammed or is someone up to id fraud....

Charges premium rate numbers to make promises they don't keep.Instead of a loan you are left with a massive phone bill.Although they state you can be reimbursed if you send your origional phone bill to a freepost address.But i am struggling to find anyone as yet who has got their refund. GOOD POINTS.They prey on people who are struggling financially. BAD POINTS.They have no good points

Part of several companies in the Stockport /Sale area who fleece £49 off you and then try and tell you ,you are in debt! We only asked for a loan at favourable rates. We shall stick to the banks from now on.
