UK Trust Loans
Guarantor Loans from £500 to £7500

Updated by Jon Edward at Feb 9, 2019

UK Trust Loans were established in 2012.

They are slowly building brand loyalty thanks to the support received on their social media channels. There are positive online reviews which give a good insight into the benefits of choosing them.

They are one of the few companies that offer loans from £500 which makes them a good option compared to some more high profile, short-term lenders. The current representative APR is 49.9% which matches the market average.

In our tests we found that the online application process took 2m 36 seconds which is around average. In Choose Wisely’s Optio scoring system, they received a rating of 55% which is low compared to other lenders (high 78.9%).

Unlike many other lenders they give you an online account so you can manage your payments and see the balance of your loan at all times.

Via Trustpilot

My only complaint with this loan from UK Trust is them paying the money into the guarantor's bank and not mine. I don't really understand why that should be so as none of the other lenders that I looked at appear to do that unless I am mistaken... Val Beaumont

My verdict of UK Trust Loans

By Jon Edward

Lender performance rating 55 out of 100

UK Trust Loans offer a variety of loans ranging from £500 (which is lower than many of their competitors) up to £7,500.

Their loans come with no arrangement fees, no charges for early settlement or over-payments and no hidden fees and the general customer experience seems to be a very positive one.

They will only lend as much as they believe the customer is able to repay in a responsible way, and the APR will vary depending on your financial circumstances and the amount you need to borrow.
