Why did Moneybarn win this award?

Why did Moneybarn win this award?

To us, being a responsible lender isn’t just about following regulations, it’s about our culture. Everything we do, throughout the entire organisation, ensures all decisions have our customer’s best interests in mind. We work with customers to build a relationship and consider how we can offer the best possible service. Assessing affordability accurately is key to being a responsible lender and in 2021 we upgraded the way we do this. In 2021 we introduced an open banking service which means our affordability review is more detailed and accurate, but it also is a faster and more secure service for our customers.

Being a responsible finance lender also means looking after the way in which we process data. In 2022 we also introduced a bespoke Data Protection Framework which is followed by all colleagues and uses award winning privacy software to make our business as secure as possible.

 

Although we put the customer first in all that we do, we’ll only lend if it’s responsible to do so, constantly balancing between customer experience and lending safely.
