My Verdict

By Jon Edward

Rating - 61.4 / 100

A reputable and well-established lender, Guarantor My Loan offers an excellent level of service and an affordable APR.

  • As their online reviews, their reputation is positive and they stand out from the crowd by offering peer to peer lender which allows a spouse to act as a guarantor.
  • There are reports of above-average times for the processing of applications which can be an issue should funds be needed quickly.

However, with no hidden fees or charges and the promise of one month’s instalment as a cashback option upon full and timely completion of repayments, Guarantor My Loan is a company well worth considering.
