Around November 2016 I had an Experian credit score of 966 out of 999, just within the "excellent" range, but having taken out a couple of retail loans and, more recently, a payday loan since then, my score now sits at 820, almost dead-centre in the "fair" range. In order to expedite its recovery, I decided to take out a loan with LL and then pay off all other accounts, thereby consolidating my debt. For those with significant levels of debt however, this probably is not your best option. Being self-employed, some lenders' application processes can become somewhat arduous, and though not entirely automated (a good sign, in my opinion), with LL it was fast and efficient. Money was deposited to my account within hours of approval. While the APR isn't the cheapest you'll find, neither is it what I'd describe as exorbitant for the type of service provided, and it is made very clear - along with how much you'll pay - from the very beginning, and all throughout the application process. No fees are charged either for early resettlement or additional payments either, something I personally plan to take full advantage of as and when I'm able. Nor are there any hidden arrangement costs. Communication has been excellent, terms and conditions are as transparent as any lender I have previous experience of and, unlike many others, LL provide an online account for customers which allows them to easily keep up to date with and manage their payments.

Our review of Likely Loans
Likely Loans are positioned as a lender that can offer loans between £500 to £5,000 to customers with a poor credit history. A major selling point of Likely Loans is that they do not require a guarantor, which is rare among bad credit lenders. Taking this into account, their advertised APR of 59.9% can be considered very reasonable.
Their online application is fairly quick to complete and customers are able to receive a decision about their loan almost instantly. Although their application process is rapid, successful applicants would then receive the funds the next working day, so if you’re looking for same day funds then it might be worth shopping around.
The online reviews paint a decent picture of Likely Loans, with customers having positive sentiment towards the lender – this is backed up with our OPTIOSCORE where they have a achieved a score of 79.7 and ranking quite high. On Feefo.com, where Likely Loans achieve an ‘excellent’ rating, customers have expressed their happiness about the efficient service, simple process and affordable repayments.
Overall verdict: Likely Loans seem to provide a sound service to their customers, with positive reviews online and a simple website. If you have bad credit and don’t have a guarantor then Likely Loans are a lender worth considering.
