Review of Funding Circle


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Soliciting views from borrowers only???

Virtually all positive reviews are from borrowers who have been prompted to review and virtually all bad reviews are from investors who haven't been asked to review but have been so disappointed with their experience that they've felt compelled to find somewhere to warn others.

I'm quite sure they have more investors than lenders, so their scoring can't be representative of most customers' experience.

Personally I have been waiting almost 9 months and counting to get my money back. In that time I've only got about £4k of the £16k I lent. Much of what I have lent has been categorised as bad debt. It seems I am not the only one. Yet they have a 4.5 star "excellent" rating...you don't have to be a genius to work out why.

This website would do well to challenge FundingCircle on how they ask "customers" for reviews. I would suggest it's abuse of the platform.

This review is of FundingCircle not Trustpilot....don't report me again!
