It is now too late to submit a Claim for unaffordable lending. The last date was 14 February 2021.
The Claims Portal remains open to allow people to update their bank account details. You cannot now submit a new Claim.
CashEuroNet (CEU), which owns the QuickQuid, Pounds To Pocket and On Stride brands, stopped giving loans and went into administration on 25 October 2019.
I will be talking about QuickQuid (QQ) rather than CashEuroNet as it is the more familiar name. Everything here also applies to loans from Cashruronet’s other brands, Pounds To Pocket and On Stride.
Grant Thornton has been appointed as Administrators. They have set up a page about Redress Complaints – this is their term for people who have asked for a refund because they were given unaffordable loans.
I will keep this page updated as questions are answered and details emerge over the next few months.

Background to the QuickQuid Administration
QuickQuid was one of the “Big Three” payday lenders in Britain, starting out in 2007.
After Wonga and the Money Shop Group had all stopped lending and gone bust over the last fifteen months, QuickQuid was left as the largest UK payday lender.
QuickQuid had well over a million customers. When it went into administration there were c. 500,000 customers with outstanding loans.
Many of these customers had prolonged borrowing from QQ. They either rolling loans over or repaid one loan but were left so short of money that they had to borrow again.
These customers have good reasons to win an affordability complaint and get a refund of the interest they paid.
Affordability complaints started on a small scale in 2015 and increased in the next few years.
In 2018, complaints going to the Financial Ombudsman (FOS) jumped with the involvement of Claims Companies and QuickQuid became the most complained about firm to FOS, excluding PPI complaints.
For a long time QQ refused to refund interest on any loans taken more than 6 years before or where the loans were given in 2015 or afterwards. This has resulted in a huge backlog of claims at the Financial Ombudsman, where QQ had made very poor offers to customers and then rejected an adjudicator decision.
In late July 2019, QQ agreed to accept several thousand FOS complaints it had previously rejected.
By accepting the FOS decisions on loans over 6 years, long chains of borrowing, and loans taken after 2015, the scale of QQ’s likely future liability for refunds will have become clear to the company.
After failing to persuade the FCA that a Scheme of Arrangement was appropriate, Enova, CEU’s large and profitable US parent, decided to close the UK business, blaming the regulatory environment in the UK.
What is happening in the administration
Customers with a valid claim for a refund are “unsecured creditors”. This includes:
- any refunds that were in progress after an amount was agreed or a Final Decision from a FOS Ombudsman (FOS);
- complaints that were underway at QQ or FOS when QQ went under;
- any new complaints sent to the Administrators.
All complaints at FOS legally had to stop. They have been passed back to the Administrators. It isn’t possible to send any new complaints to FOS.
See the FAQ on Redress Complaints for more details.
“The Claim portal wouldn’t take my details”
Several people have said this in the comments below this article. You need to phone the CashEuroNet Customer Support Team at 0800 016 3250.
You should be told how your claim is assessed within 120 days
This will be by email. For this 4 month period I suggest you check your junk/spam folder regularly to see if the response has arrived.
All emails that you receive will be from a “@casheuronetuk.co.uk”, “@mail.casheuronetuk.co.uk”, or “@uk.gt.com” email address. If you receive an email you aren’t sure about, phone the CashEuroNet Customer Support Team at 0800 016 3250.
You will be told which loans (if any) have been upheld the total value of your redress.
This is NOT the amount you will receive. You will only get a small percentage of that… That percentage won’t be known until all claims have been assessed – my guess is this will be in May-July 2021.
If you have a current loan with QuickQuid or On Stride
Your loan still legally exists even though the lender has gone under. The Administrators will want you to carry on paying the loan repayments.
If you can make the payments without difficulty and if you haven’t borrowed a lot from QQ or OnStride, the best thing is probably for you to make the normal payments so your credit record will not be affected.
But stop and think if you have a good claim for being given unaffordable loans by QQ or OnStride. The more loans you had from them, the better your claim is. With only one or two loans, you probably won’t win an affordability complaint unless the loans were very big.
If you have a valid claim for a refund, this refund will be used to reduce or wipe out the balance you owe. You will therefore be better off if you do not make any more payments to QQ now… See Wonga customers and the right of set-off which explains this in detail.
If you will struggle to make the repayments you can ask QQ for a payment arrangement. This will spread your payments over a longer period. No extra interest will be added. If you are unsure, talk to a good debt adviser.
Do NOT borrow from another lender to make the QQ payments!
How could the regulators let this happen?
This is an excellent question… Stella Creasy, MP has called for an inquiry into the FCA over Wonga and QuickQuid. I have looked at the question here: More payday lenders go under in 2019 – was anything learned from Wonga?
Any questions?
The comments below this article are a good place to ask any questions. And you may be able to see where someone else has already found out the answer.
Can a Debt Relief Order help you?
Can you get a refund from Provident?
Get a refund from a guarantor loan
SK says
Reading about all these “technical issues” makes me wonder whether the online portal has been set up, operated and maintained by (or with the help of) Enova, the parent company. They take a huge chunk for service level agreement fees…
Wouldn’t be surprised if the dirty tactics are still going on strong in the background…
Jay says
Hi Sarah
I have only just been advised of a redress of £5400. What roughly can be expected as the “much lower amount” if you are aware of a rough percentage and how long should / can this take ?
Thanks
Oliver says
About £230
Wonga was 4.3p in the pound
tim says
expect to get maybe 2-3% of that max, probs wont get paid for another 3-4 months, rough estimate I was told by quickquid
Oliver says
Onstride told me today that administrators have said 7 months from the 14th February when the portal closes.
Daryl says
I have a query. I have been advised of an accepted claim value of £2,024.39, comprising of £1,465.27 interest and fees on loans, with an additional £559.12 of compensatory interest.
There is also a separate note for a refund of £520.01 for overpayment on a loan.
When I queried this with QQ, they advised that refunds are paid in full but would have to wait until the claims were closed.
If it is going to be paid in full, is there a reason why I would have to wait until the portal is closed?
Sara (Debt Camel) says
I don’t think it’s a legal reason but administrators do have to try to minimise their costs or there will be less money to pay out. So I am not surprised if they want to batch them up and pay them all at once rather than do it individually.
They aren’t doing this to make more interest on the money.
Daryl says
Thank you, I was just concerned because I didn’t really understand it and was worried that their “reluctance” to not pay it straight away might be so they could turn around and reduce it’s value?
Sara (Debt Camel) says
I haven’t heard of anyone having a problem with this. You have stopped paying them now I hope?
Daryl says
I had settled all my loans previously.
Under review they advised the redress and separate refund based on overpayment of a previous loan.
Oliver says
Following a successful appeal I have been told to wait for a follow up email for the claim value.
As my loan is in arrears I am hoping this will clear the outstanding balance
Does anyone know how long it takes to get the claim values following the outcome of an appeal?
Kel says
When did you put your appeal in? And If you don’t mind me asking, what was the reason you appealed? I submitted mine on the 7th December
Oliver says
My appeal has been upheld but now I have to wait for the figures for the final settlement amount.
Excessive amounts of gambling
Appeal submitted 1st December
Chantal says
I am still waiting a response to my appeal. I’ve contacted them a few times to chase but now being ignored. Receiving automated emails from them saying they have received it and that’s all. Any one else feel they are being ignored?
And when did you put yours in? I put mine in on the 28th of December.
Oliver says
Appeal submitted 1st December. Decision this week Monday 8th February
Chantal Smith says
I finally got a reply. They are still looking in to it, due to the very high numbers of claims and appeals. Guess just got to be patient now. At least I finally had a response.
Dave S says
Happy and sad at the same time. Happy that i should be receiving and unexpected cash injection and that my financial status is a million times better off now than it was when i took out the payday loans, but gutted that the full redress amount was almost £25k and i’ll be receiving just 4.3 % off that
Sara (Debt Camel) says
25k. That’s why you were in such dire straits for so long :(
bob says
4.3% is optimistic, the final % will be lower almost certainly
Andy says
Hi don’t know if I’m in right place. I was in a payment plan with uncle buck loans and they have sent me a email of default or forbearance and say my account is now closed. I managed to log on to account and it stated my debt was sold but I’ve been trying all week to get through to them to see who has bought debt to no avail. I now try and log on and I think the site is no longer in use as I keep getting a cloudfront error. Does anyone know anything about this?.
Sara (Debt Camel) says
It sounds as though they maybe writing off the loan and not selling it?
Lisa Rutter says
Hi, I submitted a redress claim but haven’t heard if mine is successful or not yet. Can you advise when I should hear please?
Dave R says
Hi Lisa,
I believe the response is normally 120 days from the day you submitted the claim. Did you submit before the deadline which I think was yesterday? Their acknowledgement of your claim should state the 120 day decision timeline. My decision came at 95 days.
Jay says
I’m at day 138 with still no response to my claim. I’ve escalated three times but to no avail, I wonder if Sara has any suggestions as to an appropriate next step at this point, please?
E says
I didn’t receive a response from them to my submission in October and after 120 days I called the helpline. They claimed to have sent a response in December but I had no record of it (either in emails or in junk folder) so they resent. Not sure whether it’s widespread but worth calling
Oliver says
Has anyone had an actual refund yet of any overpayments to the loan.
I was told these will be received much quicker that the divedent payment which is due in 7 months
Alex says
Still waiting email about it this over payment as well
Daryl Rogerson says
I e-mailed a few days ago asking them this question, still no response.
Oliver says
They cleared the actual loan within 5 mins of the calculation which is great; just thought they would have processed the overpayment at the same time as it is a “full” refund and not divided up once all claims are received.
Sara (Debt Camel) says
the administrators probably want to batch up payments made to reduce the administration costs.
they are NOT doing this to make money from the extra interest they get – there isn’t any.
Oliver says
I’ve received the email with all the figures. Loan is now closed due to the refund but there is an overpayment of £50 per month since the portal was open. Logged the complaint back in August so £350. As there is no share of the dividend and full value refund I thought it would be quicker. They cleared the loan within minutes after receiving the refund amount. Can’t see how it takes 7 months for an overpayment.
Lisa Smith says
Received an email from quickquid today stating:
Our records indicate that you have an accepted claim and have received an assessment outcome with the breakdown of your claim value in the administration of CashEuroNet UK, LLC (in Administration).
As part of your claim submission, you provided us with your current details, including your current bank account details.
As previously explained, in the event that a dividend is payable, the bank details that you have provided will be used to pay your dividend.
What if my details have changed?
Customers with an accepted claim in the administration can change their contact and payment details up until 14 March 2021 by accessing the Online Claims Portal (https://claims.casheuronetuk.co.uk/). You will need to follow the same authentication steps that you took when you entered your claim.
As stated above, all details must be updated through the Online Claims Portal by 14 March 2021. No changes can be made after this date.
Does anyone know the estimated value of return for these loans ?
Emma Sharpe says
I’ve had the same e-Mail today. I was confused by the wording. It seemed to suggest I’d already been informed that my claim was successful and had a breakdown of figures and values which I haven’t. Maybe I misunderstood?
Lisa Smith says
You should of had a breakdown. But depends when you submitted. My breakdown of money owed to me was confirmed back in November probably a week after those emails they sent by accident. Search your junk mail just in case. The email with the claim assessed came from Quickquid. All other emails came from CashEuronet UK
Oliver says
Thanks.
I won my appeal and confirmed the breakdown Monday this week.
Loan in arrears cleared immediately and have £350 owed in full due to overpayments since the portal opened,
Seems to be about 3 months then since the figures were confirmed to you receiving the refund. I presume this was the overpayment you received back as they have yet to confirm the dividend part of the refund?
Hopefully it will be quicker now that the portal is closed for new claims
Steph Critchlow says
I had this today so checked bank details were correct.
Just had a notification From my bank I’ve had 2 payments with the reference redress payment and another with remediation?!
Is this my payout??
No clue where it’s from otherwise!
Lisa Smith says
Thats really good. How much percentage of your redress amount would you say they paid – less than 5% ? Roughly
Steph Critchlow says
My claim value was £470.30 the 2 payments I’ve received total £222.14.
I’m not sure if it is the refund, just on hold to my bank to see if they can tell me the senders details.
Seems too high to be the refund.
Oliver says
Could be the overpayment part if that was due.
That is refunded in full.
Most had this figure in the table – last figure in the list.
All payments to the loan since the portal was opened are refunded in full of the claim is successful
These refunds are paid quicker than the dividend part.
Waiting for my overpayment refund!!
Jane Y says
Hi Steph did you find out what this was for? I had the same email yday and am due a refund but as yet no cash received
Thanks
Jane Y
Chantal Smith says
It is likely to be somewhere between 3 and 4.5% only.
Oliver says
I would like to know when they are making full refund values for overpayments.
No dividend share as it is a full refund
Daryl says
I queried them about it a few days ago. This is the response:
————————————
Thank you for contacting CashEuroNet UK, LLC. We appreciate your patience during this time, in response to your query, once your refund for the amount of £520.01 has been process our joint adminstators will be providing a confirmation email. Unfortunately there is no direct timeframe that can be provided at this time. Please continue to montior your emails for future updates.
————————————
As someone said above, they have commitments to keep costs down, so will no doubt try and make as few batch payments as possible with this is mind.
Oliver says
Thanks.
I have had inconsistent messages.
The claims handler said 3 months
One person in customer services said anywhere up to 7 months
And someone else said much quicker than that couple of days as there is no dividend of value to work out as it is a full refund,
I would have thought when they cleared my loan down to zero they would have processed any overpayment at the same time as BACS or faster payments have min cost to the business (5p) for a faster payment at a cost to the business.
They cleared my loan in 5 mins of receiving the outcome which at least is good.
Oliver says
It’s likely to do with an overpayment refund
What was the time difference from getting the outcome email with the figures to getting the email and payout about bank account?
Jane Y says
Hi
I had this email today as well. I’m due a refund for overpayment but as yet not received anything.
Did your payment go through a long time after receiving the email?
Oliver says
When did you get the outcome to your claim with all the figures. I’m seeing a trend of about 3 months between the outcome to the claim to getting the email about the confirmation of bank account etc
Was yours much quicker than 3 months?
Jane Y says
Hi
I originally received outcome email late November.
I then received another one start of this month with same details. Then today received the next email as mentioned earlier. My query was that I have not had any payments received as someone else was saying that they had. I too am due a refund for overpayments
Matt says
Hi , just wondering if there is any news on what the
administrators are going to do with the business?
Do you think they will let the business go into liquidation.
And if you have had a claim rejected, if they go for liquidation will the credit reference agency have to remove all loans ?
Thanks
Matt
Sara (Debt Camel) says
It’s definitely heading for liquidation.
It is possible the remaining loans could be sold to a debt collector but they may not be.
CRAs don’t remove all loans when a creditor disappears. But if you then want to get your record corrected, the CRA can’t get this confirmed by the creditor so you can can ask the CRA to “suppress” the record so other people can’t see it.
Kel says
Hi Sara, what would happen if they didn’t sell the loans and went into liquidation. Would they still expect to recoup the remaining loans?
Sara (Debt Camel) says
What happened with Wonga – the administrators either couldn’t sell the loans or were offered a such a low price that they choose not to. Instead they offered everyone a chance to settle at 20% of the balance and have the loan deleted from your credit record. And after that then they stopped taking any more payments.
QQ may not be the same of course.
Once a company is liquidated it can’t continue to take loan repayments because there is no one there, no bank accounts etc.
Kel says
That gives me some hope if my appeal is denied. I’m paying £200 a month at the minute (70 for arrears whilst I was on my dmp and my contractual amount). I’ve already paid my loan amount back 3.5k and another 3.5k to go :(
Sara (Debt Camel) says
this is the reason it may be less likely to happen with Q than with Wonga – most Wonga balances were smaller and many had defaulted a long while before so are a lot less easy to sell.
JP says
Hi,
I’m still waiting on a reply from the administrators in regards to my appeal, however i was wondering if my claim was upheld will i be refunded in full for all payments made during administration? My loan finished in Sept 20 but had continued paying throughout administration.
Thanks
Sara (Debt Camel) says
mmm probably. You do have to replay the capital but at a guess you would already have repaid that before the administration started.
JP says
Yeah i’d already paid the capital back give or take a £100. So would it be from Oct 19? Or when the portal opened in Aug 20? Fingers crossed it comes back in my favour. Thanks.
Oliver says
Any overpayments made to the loan since the portal opened are refunded in full
Waiting for mine following my successful appeal
JP says
Good news, hopefully mine will be the same
Kel says
Sara, do you think my grounds for appealing is legitimate, I’m still waiting to hear back. I chased them yesterday and apparently it will be another ten days. My complaint is that when I tried to get loan back in 2017 I didn’t realise I already tried to get a loan with them in the past. It had my old employer details, income and expenditure but wouldn’t let me change it before clicking proceed. I didn’t get an automatic response, someone called asked for my payslip, so I sent it in but was sure i wouldn’t get the loan as it was a different company and lower amount. The next day I was approved. 7’months later i went onto a DMP. When I contacted onestride, they couldn’t find my account with my postcode, old or new. Turns out they had my old employers postcode? And … my loan doesn’t appear anywhere on my credit file and I’ve still got over 3k left to pay….
Sara (Debt Camel) says
Are you saying they rejected your claim as they couldn’t find an account for with a loan?
Kel says
They didn’t say why they rejected my claim. I only had one loan of 3.5k with onstride. The total value including interest is over 7k. I’m still actively paying the loan.
I’m guessing I didn’t meet the criteria?
Sara (Debt Camel) says
so was the loan unaffordable? If it wasn’t, appeal and send your bank statements to prove the loan was unaffordable. People seem to be winning some appeals when they didn’t meet the “criteria” used.
Kel says
I believe it was and I ended up on a dmp a few months later. Also I stated they didn’t carry out the proper checks, for example my old employers details were saved on my account when I applied for the loan. When I sent in my payslip from my new employer it wasn’t questioned. I’ve provided all the info in my appeal and I’m just waiting for a response now. It’s been over 2 months.
Kel says
So I’ve had a reply from in regards to my appeal. They have accepted it and have said I will receive a new claim value email in the next 7 days. What happens with the interest? Will it all be removed and any remaining balance from my original loan amount left to pay? (If any)
Sara (Debt Camel) says
Good – people do seem to be winning some of these appeals.
The balance should be adjusted so that you only have to pay in total what you borrowed. Do you know what you have paid in total to the loan so far – ignore if this is “interest” or “principle”, just the total of your cash payments.
Kel says
Hi Sara, yes, I’ve paid around £3600, my loan was £3500 so technically I shouldn’t have anything left to pay. They recognised they had not completed the appropriate checks on my income and expenditure at the time of funding.
Sara (Debt Camel) says
In that case the balance should be cleared and the excess should be refunded to you in full. These were payments made during the administration that should not have been made so you get a full refund, this doesn’t go through the pro-rating process where people only get percentage of their refund back.
Kel says
That’s great. I have another payment due on Friday and I’m concerned that my revised claim value won’t arrive by then. Should I pay it in case they try and issue a default? I’ve tried my hardest to clear up my credit rating so not sure what to do in this situation. I doubt they’ll place a hold on my account.
Sara (Debt Camel) says
Can you make the payment easily?
I think there is little chance they will sort out your claim so fast to be able to stop taking the Friday payment. Yiou need to acty fast to be able to cancel it from your end.
They can’t issue a default until you have missed several months, but they could add a missed payment to your credit record. But in administration this often doesnt seem to happen. If it did, they would have to remove it as you have won your claim.
Kel says
I could make the payment, i just don’t want to be waiting x amount of months for the refund of the overpayment. My bank issued a new debit card last week as there was an issue with my other one so they don’t have any details to take a payment. I’ll wait until Thursday, if I haven’t heard anything else about my claim value I’ll call them to make a payment.
Oliver says
I hear it is up to 3 months for the overpayment refunds.
Seems from comments that people are now getting refunds now from resolved claims back in November. Only the overpayment part
I so hope it is sooner as waiting for mine from my resolution of last week.
The dividend share is taking 7months from when the portal was closed
Kel says
Oliver, how long did it take for you to receive your new claim value from when you got the accepted claim email?
Oliver says
Exactly 7 days.
Loan was cleared immediately from the interest refund – £1050 in arrears. Got the calculation email and then 5 mins later email to confirm loan was closed.
Waiting for my £350 refund from 7 payments since the portal opened £50 a month from a repayment plan. Been a week since loan was cleared
I’m hearing mixed messages on the overpayment refund. Some saying days, weeks and now up to 3
Months. Certainly treated differently to the % / dividend refund which takes 7 months. Expecting £10 refund lol
Jane Y says
Hi both
I received an email back in Nov 2020 accepting claim and quiting a refund for overpayments. I then received the same email in Feb this year. I am still waiting for the overpayment refund.
Jane
Kel says
I won’t have much of a refund but I’m not really bothered, as long as my account will be closed I’m happy. Be glad to finally put this to bed and not have to deal with them anymore. Fingers crossed your refund comes through fairly soon
Chantal Smith says
I have had a response to my appeal.
My claim was upheld by the financial ombudsman before they went in to administration. But I wasn’t paid and the claim wasn’t settled. I then applied through the portal, to be rejected. I appealed and they are now asking for information ie bank statements that I won’t be able to obtain as it is now more than 6 years old. When I first complained it was about 4 years old. It took over two years to be dealt with and I obtained everything I was asked for at the time. Don’t know what to do now. I did keep my emails from the complaint being upheld. Does anyone think I should send these in to them seeing as I now cannot obtain different bank statements that they are asking me for?
Sara (Debt Camel) says
did you get bank statements for FOS?
Chantal Smith says
Yes I did and I sent all these to the administrators but they are asking me for more now that it will be impossible to provide?
Sara (Debt Camel) says
so how many did you send and how many are they asking for? can you something about how many loans you had over what period?
Chantal Smith says
I had a total of 15 loans over two years. I have sent them statements to cover all the period of borrowing, except for 30 days before the borrowing started, which wasn’t requested at the time and I could have gotten this then but now it is over 6 years old the banks no longer have the records. The borrowing was from 2011- 2012 and I started the complaint in 2016. This was then held up with the Ombudsman waiting to see if Cash Euronet would look at it because of the age. They finally agreed to look at it and agreed with the ombudsman decision a short while before they then went in to administration.
I then raised it through the portal and appealed and sent them all the statements that I had originally sent to the ombudsman. They are now asking me to send them a bank statement which is dated 30 days before the borrowing which I don’t have and it will be impossible to get. I’m now at a loss and very infuriated because my complaint was previously upheld on the information that I had already provided.
Sara (Debt Camel) says
Then reply that you can no longer get that statement, point out if FOS or CEN had originally asked for it you could have done, but say that you do not mind if you don’t get a Refund for the first loan.
Dave R says
QQ accounts and a default now all removed from both Experian and Transunion. Both achieved via raising disputes and attaching my claims outcome email which states the accounts would be removed. Don’t wait months and months for Quickquid to eventually make the changes folks, get your disputes in.
So happy these are gone. Thanks so much Sara and this wonderful community for all your help and advice.
alan says
nice one, Ive raised manual disputes with both for the same thing, did it around 12 days ago, can I ask how long it took for you to get the info removed from having initially emailed the dispute?
Dave R says
Hi Alan,
Experian wrote to me on the 28th day to say they were deleting it all. It was off my credit file there the next morning.
Transunion took about 6 weeks from initial dispute. They actually initially rejected the dispute because curiously CashEuro/QQ replied to them to say that my case was ongoing still and no update was needed – which is false. I provided Transunion with my
email from my Experian and asked them to re-dispute the issue. I then emailed email addresses for both Cash Euro and QQ and asked for them to remove the data/agree to the dispute this time. I provided them with the Experian letter and my final response letter from them. They oddly asked for my Transunion report (sent them the credit karma version) and upon receiving that said they would escalate the issue. 1 week later they emailed me to say they had requested the information be deleted and Transunion emailed on the same day to say that the re-dispute was upheld.
Thierry says
Hey Dave,
Well done on removing QQ from your credit report. You mentioned Experian and Transunion. But what about Equifax?
Dave R says
Hi Thierry, QQ haven’t appeared on my Equifax report at any point. Not sure if they report to them? Are they on your Equifax report as well?
If they are, I’d contact Equifax and do exactly the same thing. Send them your final response letter where they have stated they will remove the loans as evidence for your dispute.
J. Ball says
Hi I contacted them early last year and was told I would get a reply by September, I haven’t had anything and I can’t find the original email they sent me?
Sara (Debt Camel) says
You need to talk to customer Services urgently to find out what is happening.
Hmcat says
If you thought you had claim submitted but then were asked for bank details etc contact them asap after fruitless emails to lavery etc once ICO included they admitted my claim wasn’t submitted due to requests for employment details etc on bank statements I maintain data harvesting not required for historic decision and if making payment then ask for details .. finally got a response claim apparently submitted before deadline did not have to provide all bank statements with employment household transactions .. but how many claims not submitted due stupid caveat or attempts at setting up DD on bank accounts as veiled validation? heads up this is a huge can of worms they refused submissions INCORRECTLY.. or a cynic might say delay delay delay…
Jay says
I’m at day 145 with no outcome to my claim. I’ve emailed Christine Laverty with no reply, countless escalations with no updates, I’m at a loss now. Do you have any ideas as to what I should do now, Sara? Or has anyone else had a similar issue? When I just called, the first question was ‘are you calling to update bank details or to submit an appeal?’ Which leads me to believe that the scheme has moved into a new phase and I’m concerned my claim has slipped through the cracks.
Sara (Debt Camel) says
Email her again with the word COMPLAINT as the subject.
J says
Hi does anyone have an email address? I’ve been emailing onstride since last year and no response!
Sara (Debt Camel) says
have you sent in a claim?
Julie says
Can anyone confirm whether the overpayment amount is separate from the other figures and whether this should be paid in full?
Jemma Ball says
Yes in may last year and I have an acknowledgment email from cash euro net but they don’t seem to reply to my emails
Sara (Debt Camel) says
have you phoned them up?
Oliver says
I’m in the same position regarding overpayments (full refund)
Anyone had theirs yet since having the calculations come through. How long did you have to wait.
Appreciate that the dividend/ share will take longer but keen to get overpayment back
I had an overpayment with another lender in administration and received it back within 48 hours by faster payment.
Still waiting a week since the email confirming the amount.
Julie says
I emailed them asking when the funds will be paid and they said anytime up until September

I too have finally had my appeal upheld but have been told it will be a few weeks before my assessment is calculated due to the complexities of my case. I’m aware that my outstanding balance with onstride that I’ve been paying monthly will be fully cleared but I’ve got a payment that is scheduled to be taken Friday, do you know if I cancel the card whether the payment can still be taken?

Hi,
Just need a little advice?
I have an live on stride account on my credit file. I took the loan out in 2017 under Pounds to Pocket , however straight after I was unable to make any payments. I have not be chased for the debt since 2017.
I’m sorting out my adverse credit and notice today that the company is under administration? Is it worth clearing the debt ? Can I reach a settle with the administrator? Any other relevant advice?
Many thanks
Sara (Debt Camel) says
oh dear. The time to make an affordability complaint to the administrators passed a few weeks ago.
is this loan defaulted on your credit record?
We don’t know what will happen to these debts. With Wonga, the administrators wrote to everyone and offered them the chance to settle at 20% of the debt balance, but that was a bit later on, near the end of the administration.
The Wonga loans were never sold. In some other administrations loans have been sold to a debt collector and you can then offer the debt collector a settlement.

I’ve just had notification that after a loan for £700 the total repayable was over £6000! Surely they would have to consider such a claim or write off the balance owed
Sara (Debt Camel) says
how old was that loan?
J says
It was from 2013!
Sara (Debt Camel) says
have you made any payments to this? Is it still on your credit record?
J says
Yes but they are still chasing over £1000.
Claim currently ongoing with onstride
Sara (Debt Camel) says
ok, you need to wait and find out what happens to your claim.

Hi submitted my affordability complaint via the portal end of august but haven’t heard anything since. Is anyone else still waiting after this time? Thanks
QQdef says
I had one loan with QQ which was assessed and fully accepted. The email said that the loans will be removed from my credit file but I notice that this month they now have a balance of 0 and are showing as settled.
I’ve emailed experian who say that the loan will stay on my credit file for 6 years from default. But I thought missold loans are supposed to be removed from my credit :/
Oliver says
Clearing the balance to zero and settled is the easy part. They will take up to a couple of months to clear from your record as a default. I’m in the same position. I have sent my confirmation email to agencies to see if they will remove manually.
Tom says
Just had message from Experian, I raised a manual dispute with them to have my quickquid default and missed payments removed from my credit file, today’s message is as follows, pretty disappointing
“I am writing about the recent query we raised with CASHEURONETUK, LLC, about the accuracy of data recorded on your report. As we haven’t received a response from them within 28 days of you raising the matter with us, we have suppressed this information from your report.
This means that, even though we still have a record of that information – it won’t be seen by lenders if you make credit applications, and won’t be seen by you if you obtain a copy of your report. You may see a change to your Experian Credit Rating once this information has been suppressed.
When we do receive an update from CASHEURONETUK, LLC one of the following things will happen:
1. If they confirm that the information is accurate, we’ll stop suppressing it, so it will appear on your report again.
2. If they tell us that the information can be changed, we’ll make the change and the information will then appear on your report again.
3. If they say the information can be deleted, we’ll permanently delete the information from your report.
We will let you know once we receive their reply.

Sara (Debt Camel) says
I am not sure why that is disappointing?

When did you put the complaint in? I put mine in August through the portal and haven’t heard anything since the acknowledgment.
Debbie says
Hi Sarah
I recieved an email from Casheuronet in Dec20 saying they needed more time to look at my claim due to my loans being with a third party (lantern) which I am still paying. I rang today for progress and got told they are still waiting for the statements from lantern and I could speed my redress claim up if I got a copy of them and sent them by emai. I have asked Lantern for a copy of these. My question is if my redress is worth more than what I owe on the debt is Lantern liable to refund me the difference or do I just get the percentage the administrators are giving from casheuronet
Many thanks
Sara (Debt Camel) says
I don’t think there is much chance Lantern will refund you any cash.
Debbie says
Just another quick question. Do I keep on paying my monthly payment to Lantern or do I ask them to put it on hold while my redress is looked at. I only owe £320 now.
Many thanks
Sara (Debt Camel) says
If you think you have a strong complaint to QQ then it’s best to stop paying. If you can put this money aside so if things go wrong and you still owe Lantern the money, you have it waiting?
Charlotte says
I am in the same position. A quick quid loan was sold to third party debt company. I haven’t made any payments to them as I wanted to see the outcome of my claim. If my claim is upheld will this debt no longer need paid or that it has been sold to them do I need to pay it? I’ll start a payment plan with them if I need to, but I don’t want to pay if it is classed as unaffordable in my assessment
Debbie says
Charlotte I have just rang Lantern who are my debt recovery firm. I’ve been advised that I should have stopped paying OR they should have stopped taking my payments when they were told of my complaint for redress. They have now stopped my payments and told me that if I have overpaid them because they didn’t stop my payments I will be refunded. So hopefully if my redress is in my favour they will be owing me some money back.
Charlotte says
Thanks for the information Debbie. I won’t set up a PP until I know the outcome of my claim
Debbie says
Thank you for the advice

Hi Are grant Thornton dealing with all payday lenders ie lantern, Quickquid etc?
Thanks
Sara (Debt Camel) says
When a lender goes bust, a firm of insolvency practitioners is appointed. GT were appointed for Wonga and QuickQuid. Other firms have handled different lenders.
Lantern is not a payday lender and they are not in administration, they are only mentioned here as they are a debt collector that has bought some payday loans.
