Day 10 and yet again no refund, I'm in shock to be honest as this company gives you money in minutes yet takes this long to process a simple refund. No reply from the CEO who I emailed which is incredibly rude.

Day 25 now of waiting for a refund that supposedly is to be paid within 28 days however from doing research I can see they delay payment for as much as possible! Unbelievable really when you can get a loan in your bank within minutes of applying & quick enough to take the payments!

Affordability complaint made by myself which was accepted by lending stream (112 loans in less than 3 years how could they not have seen I was in trouble) Recieved an offer of a refund which I accepted but have yet to even recieve confirmation. States 28 days for refund which is insane as they are quick enough to give you the loans instantly and take payment from you but take 4 weeks to refund what they owe!!!!

Affordability complaint approved by FOS… Ticket Number: 2019101710011269 Affordability complaint approved by FOS and Lending Stream (Gain Credit) but it seems that there is no urgency within Lending Stream / Gain Credit to provide the refund within a short period of time. Even after acceptance by the company that they had been irresponsible in their lending practices. Surely a more customer focus course of action would be to provide the refund as quickly as possible, instead of stretching this out to the maximum 28 days allowed. I phoned a manager within Lending Stream this morning to request my payment is expedited due to urgent personal issues and he said he will communicate back to me later in the day to confirm if this is possible, I am at day 22 so I don't consider I am asking too much from a company that has admitted they were irresponsible to provide me the refund. The payments are made via faster payments, so it's not as if I need to wait 3 days for the BACS to process. At the end of the day I will update this to confirm if the manager emailed me as he said he would or if i have been ignored again. If they do stretch this out to the full 28 days surely the FCA needs to look into why some PDL companies actively provide refunds as soon as possible and others inflict more misery on customers by delaying as long as possible even when the complaint process itself is a very long drawn out process. I hope to report that payment is made within the next couple of days and I will gladly amend my rating because they listened to my request and made payment.

I would definitely steer clear I lost my job rang them about they said they can sort it out after 4 mouths they sent me a default notice and said they arranged a payment plan they have never spoken to me about it or sent an letters or emails they doubled my loan amount and threatened me with the bailiffs if I didn't pay total rip off STAY WELL CLEAR

Refund process is very slow. Dragged on for months now and still no refund, lending stream are the most awkward company i have ever dealt with. Can't fault advisors when needed to speak to them but seems like they purposely drag out the refund process. Quite happy to take money off and pay out loans quick you but when they owe you money suddenly it takes months. Avoid!
