Scam Warning: Best Loans Direct

24 Jul 2015 – We have recently been made aware of a scam where a company promoting itself as Best Loans Direct is suggesting to customers that they are affiliated to, or part of Evlo.

Email address used by the scam: strong>loan.lender@gmx.com</strong Web Address: bestloansdirect.co.uk Associated Phone Numbers: 0151 528 9009

Evlo Limited and Evlo Lending Limited have no affiliation or relationship with this company whatsoever. We are reporting them to Financial Conduct Authority and have requested that they immediately cease and desist from claiming to represent Evlo.

This organisation is purposefully misleading customers into making upfront payments via Money Transfer services on the promise of a loan from Evlo where in actuality; no application is passed to us.

We take such matters very seriously and as such would like to state clearly that Evlo Limited & Evlo Lending Limited have absolutely no affiliation or association with the website or business “Best Loans Direct”, nor another related site owned by the same company at bestloansdirect.co.uk.

Evlo will NEVER request an upfront payment from a customer.  If you are asked by someone purporting to be from Evlo to make an advance payment, please DO NOT do so and please do not provide any personal bank account or card details. You should terminate the telephone call immediately and call Evlo back on 03303 033 500

We work with a number of brokers offering bad credit loans on our behalf which means there are several places other than our website that may send your application to us. However if you have any doubts that the application you are submitting is a genuine application with us, you can call us at any point in the process using our Call Your Local Branch page to ensure your peace of mind.

We are investigating this situation and expect it to be resolved swiftly.
