2. When I called to activate a policy I was told it was a past date however I had completed the quote to start the following day. I assume the agent just wanted to go home at it was close to 5pm.

Risposta di Apricot
Hi Adrian,
I was very concerned to see you have had a poor experience with us and that you thought we were a scam.
As I mentioned in our 1-1 email conversation following your review, we are first and foremost a credit building product, and the store is just one part of our proposition. As a responsible lender, we need to observe our customer repayment behaviour to ensure they are not getting into unmanageable debt before considering whether to reduce the upfront required payment over time. This is why all customers can only use credit towards 30% of their purchases to begin with.
Our ultimate aim is to bring this down to a 0% upfront payment for customers with solid repayment history to deliver a truly financially inclusive, interest-free consumer credit product. This would be incredibly valuable to our customers and offer a fair way to borrow without horrendous interest rates offered by traditional credit card companies.
As I’m sure you will appreciate, such an ambitious goal is not something we can achieve in the few short months we have been running. We are a very young company and these things all take time to come to fruition, so I’m sorry you were disappointed with your experience and feel it didn’t live up to expectations.
In all cases, we offer a 30 day money back guarantee with no questions asked, so we would have been happy to resolve your disappointment quickly and easily with a full refund. We never heard anything from you prior to you leaving your review so were unable to address issues that we were not aware of, but following our conversation the team refunded you in full right away.
Finally, I want to say thank you for your feedback and for trying Apricot. Off the back of this, we have already made amendments to our messaging to make it clearer how we work and hope this will prevent disappointment for other customers in future.
All the best for the future,
Sharief

Very handy way to boost my score
Very handy way to boost my score. Don't even need to think about it and I'm using it in conjunction with some credit builder cards to really up my score so I can get my mortgage soon. When I had a question livechat were quick to come back which was good.

Expat Service
I've been living abroad for the last 5 years which meant no credit rating when I returned. I've just kicked off with Apricot and it seems like it could be just what I need to get my mortgage application approved in a few months.

Recently joined Apricot. Too early for it to show on my report (they say it takes 6-8 weeks) but finding the finance tips within the dashboard so useful already. Customer support also quick to reply which is always a bonus.

Hello Abdel - Thank you for your feedback!
I'm glad you've found the tips in the dashboard useful and that customer service has been up to your expectations.
You are correct in stating that it does take a few weeks before Apricot will appear on your credit report due to the way the credit bureaus collect data. Rest assured that your credit history with us will begin from the day you sign up and once it shows in your credit report you full Apricot activity will be taken into account.
If we can help with anything or you need further clarification, please let us know!
Thanks,
Sharief
Early access
I was excited to be part of the early access group and I'm liking what I see so far. You'd never know they haven't launched the full product yet. As other reviews have said, customer service is great via live chat and email, and they even have a phone number you can call (although I haven't used this yet). Will update my review in due course as I get better acquainted with the platform.
