stitch up

Lumi initially presents as a very user-friendly and efficient lending platform. The application process is straightforward, approval is quick, and accessing funds is easy — which makes it appealing for small businesses needing fast finance.

However, my experience after that initial stage has been extremely disappointing.

After missing a single payment — due to a public holiday causing the repayment to be processed earlier than expected — my account was immediately restricted. Even though I rectified the payment the following day and maintained a perfect repayment history for the next 12 months, my facility was never reinstated.

Instead, I was locked out of accessing further funds and required to continue repayments at the highest interest rate, with no flexibility or consideration given despite consistent performance since.

This rigid approach shows a lack of understanding of how real businesses operate, particularly when minor, one-off issues occur. There appears to be little willingness to work with customers or support them beyond the initial loan stage.

Based on my experience, I would strongly recommend that other businesses carefully consider alternative funding options before proceeding.

Hi, thank you for sharing your feedback.

We're sorry to hear your experience with Lumi didn't meet your expectations.

We do have processes in place regarding access to facilities following a missed payment, and we understand this can be frustrating, especially when the situation was outside of your control. We'd genuinely like the opportunity to look into what happened and better understand your experience.

Please get in touch with our team directly, and we'll be happy to work with you to resolve this.
