Hi Chantell,

Thank you for raising your concerns — we understand how upsetting it can be to see activity on your credit file that you weren’t expecting.

We’ve reviewed our records and can see that multiple loan applications were submitted over a short period, which triggered the credit enquiries you’re referring to.

While we can't discuss individual application details publicly, our customer experience team has emailed you today. We encourage you to reply to the email so we can work through this with you directly.

Thank you,

Rapid Loans

100% applied online so easy

Everything was applied online, my contact Lucas.J did an awesome job helping me with consolidation loan. One payment has never been so easy, saving me a few hundred dollars.

Worst company it's like they want you…

Worst company it's like they want you to fail, my circumstances changed less money coming in and rent going up and bad on me but I just couldn't keep up with payments but was still paying something asked for financial hardship one of their employees told me to do that and they wanted me to pay an unbelievable amount up front and then three other payments then back to normal payments, struggling with the fortnightly payment but that was what was offered to me for financial hardship nothing at all like what the employee told me it would be. Don't really listen to what you're saying, I wouldn't recommend to anyone.

THINK TWICE!

Even if you have to enter into a hardship arrangement they will still continue with 22% interest and 15% arrears fee. I’ve been paying this loan off forever, I’ve experienced homelessness a few times due to the change in economy (I’m a single mum) my loan actually went backwards this year by about 2.5k I’ve had it for 5 years and I haven’t touched the principal. SHOP AROUND! I’ve been bounced between collection officers, sent links I can’t open and as a result had hardship applications unapproved with no empathy or understanding or review of my financial situation. I get its dog eat dog out here but actual banks care more about their customers business. Just think twice!

Absolute scam had 759 credit score then applied now 430 credit score and didn’t even get the loan, they scam refer you to 3 other places Now finance and driver loans even put up a 5k car for the 10k loan and nothing false advertisement…. Once I sell my inherited property I will be seeking a law suit. Don’t care if I loose it all on this they will pay.
