Savers in time of need!

published

SocietyOne thank you for approving my loan. I had 5 debts which i had been looking to consolidate as no matter how much i paid it wasn’t moving. SocietyOne approved my consolation loan within the same day. And now i am waiting on the funds to come through. I would recommend 100% to anyone looking to get financial stress relief to go with SocietyOne. Application to approval was quick, efficient and friendly. Thank you SocietyOne truly appreciate your service

Rip Off

published

20% interest rates - had my loan for 2 years - not missed a payment, only paid off 2k. Shocking and Rude business practise. Happy to take desperate Australians money and are not a nice business to deal with. There was a system error and for months I received auto generated threatening emails and texts about ruining my credit history

Exemplary Service

published

I will admit, I was hesitant to approach Society One at first, having always dealt with my bank but the mess around with banks & I have had many years dealings with mine. Society One Customer service is second to none. There was no rummaging for paperwork or phone numbers & my loan was same day approval. Ask away with any questions & you will get a prompt, pleasant, upfront response from these people, who excel in their field. It's such a refreshing change to have "real people" to talk with. Well done, Guys.

Very happy borrower

published

The customer service provided by Society One is great. They are fast at providing responses and clear with their communication. Everything is simple and straightforward to understand.
The rate I received is very reasonable for an unsecured loan.
Definitely a 9/10 from me, they would be a 10/10 if there was an online account for me to view.

Technology meets Old Fashioned Customer Service

published

Society One blends the new age of technology with great customer service. I received a follow up call from a consultant within 24 hours of submitting my application. The consultant was patient and very understanding in regard to my financial circumstances and I felt confident that the he would be working towards the best option for me.

Easy, online, customer focussed and quick.

Very easy online process. Efficient and professional service. The Big 4 banks could learn something from Society One about efficiency and less admin and paper work. A great service, thank you.

Communication

published

Applied for a loan, never got any emails to confirm what the out come was .
Terrible service, had to go on the site and message a person and ask what was happening, they replied it was declined and I was sent an email, but to date still have not received any emails .

Competitive Interest Rates & Easy On-line Application Process

published

I did my due diligence. I checked out all the big 4 Aussie banks (one of which I have been a customer of for many years), I looked into other lenders who advertise on T.V. & I checked out Choosi & Finder too. The Society One on-line Application process is straight forward, simple & easy. The customized interest rate I received (based on my credit score) for my Personal Loan was very fair AND very, very competitive. Check them out for yourself. Very, very good Client Service too.

I applied for a loan which took longer because of delay with uploading bank statement.. kept receiving generated emails requesting that I needed to do this still.. haven’t heard anything back since and very disappointing

Hi Lynda,
I would like to advise you that beware of the contract, they changed condition and interest rate just before the released loan, in this case, you may have pressure to sign the contract. Never sign the contract until you see the contract and get advice properly. Read contract line by line, word by word. Also look for other options.

Is it standard that you contact the bank in behalf of the borrower for their bank statements?

Hi Kristie, thank you for your question!

We recommend all applicants use the bankstatements.com portal to submit their bank statements to us electronically using the Ilion-backed portal. When you enter your details, the bank receives a notification to send us your statements.

If you choose to send your statements to us manually, you will have to email them in PDF format. We will not contact the bank directly on your behalf.

If you have any further queries, please email [email protected].

Kind regards, Ash @ SocietyOne.

Can a pensioner get a loan?

Ash K.SocietyOne

Hi Sandie75, thank you for your question.
It is a requirement that all applicants with us be earning a minimum of $30,000.00 a year in taxable income.
Therefore, if the pension is your primary source of income, we would not be able to assist you with a loan.
If you have any questions, please email [email protected]. We apologise for any inconvenience.
Kind regards, Ash @ SocietyOne
