Treating Customers Fairly
We put our customers at the heart of what we do, and we like to make the customer journey
as smooth as possible. That’s why we have introduced applications by text for customers
who have borrowed from us recently, and repaid what they owe. We treat an application by
text just a seriously as any other application and we will carry out our thorough checks
before making a lending decision. If your circumstances have changed since you previously
had a loan with us, we may not be able to offer you an advance. We will still need to verify
your details and you will receive new loan documentation if we are able to accept your
application. As an existing customer of Uncle Buck you will know that our website contains a
lot of important information about our loans, including risks of non payment and default
charges. You can find all this information here.
