Lendable loan refund claims

The short answer

If Lendable lent to you when the repayments weren’t affordable, or kept lending when you were already struggling, you could be owed back the interest and charges. Complaints go to Lendable first, then to the Financial Ombudsman.

  2. 02You had several loans running at once

If a loan is found unaffordable, you usually only repay what you borrowed. Anything paid above that comes back to you, with interest.

Ombudsman decisions about Lendable

Published Financial Ombudsman decisions show how complaints like these are judged. Where a complaint is upheld, it is often only from a certain date or for certain lending. Every complaint is decided on its own facts, so these are examples, not a guide to what you’ll get.

  • Upheld

    A £6,000 loan over 36 months would have taken debt repayments above 40% of the borrower’s income.

    Warning signs in the borrower’s bank data were not properly looked into before a £4,000 loan.

Lendable loan questions

Can I claim if I’ve paid the loan off?

Yes. Repaid loans can still be looked at, subject to time limits.

What if my loan was sold to a debt collector?

You still complain to Lendable, the lender that made the decision to lend.

How long does Lendable have to reply?

Eight weeks. If Lendable hasn’t sent a final response by then, or you’re unhappy with it, the complaint can go to the Financial Ombudsman, normally within six months of the final response.

How far back can I claim?

Usually six years from the lending, or three years from when you realised you had cause to complain, whichever is later. Where an account is still running, the ombudsman has sometimes looked back further.

Complain to Lendable yourself

You don’t need a claims company. You can complain to Lendable directly using its complaints page. If you’re unhappy with the answer, or it hasn’t replied within eight weeks, you can take it to the Financial Ombudsman. Both are free.
