Hello, can I avail loan? I’m from the Philippines.
Hi Analiza,
Thanks for your message.
Unfortunately, these loans are only available in Australia. You’ll need to contact a lender in the Philippines to find a loan.
Cheers,

I want to know the status of my loan application, thank you and God Bless.
Hi Ruby,
Thank you for your inquiry.
Unfortunately, we don’t have the direct access to determine the status of your application. Our company finder.com.au is a financial comparison website and general information service designed to help consumers to make a better decision. Please note we do not represent any company we feature on our pages.
Typically, after you sent your application online within 10 minutes you will receive a feedback from the provider. However, in some cases, they may need to further review your application to verify the details of your loan application. In general, you will receive the result within an hour during business hours. If you need to follow-up your application it would be nice to contact the provider directly.
I hope this information has helped.
Cheers,

Im currently in the process of applying for a loan with enably. I was told i was successful and they would transfer the funds in next 10 minutes. 2 days later still no funds. By chance i checked my spam email and they asked for photo ID, proof of residency, payslip. Now it is at “underwriting” status. This loan was advertised as quick? The only reason i need the cash is because its xmas and the gas company took $900 out of my account instead of the $59 payment (Their mistake). This has taken some time to sort out and my enably loan was a quick solution, or that was the idea anyway?
Hi Waiting,
Thanks for your question.
Generally, with enably, most customers will be able to complete their application online in 10 minutes and will be offered a decision within an hour of completing an application. However, in some cases, they may need to manually review your application to clarify the details of your loan. You’ll generally receive an outcome within the hour during business hours. If you need to follow-up your application with enably, please feel free to contact them directly.
Cheers,

where can I report those company like loan range and ferratum, they will never let u pass , and you’ll never get a loan there. they believe they own the system.
trust me don’t waste time at those company, also they’ll put it on ur credit report, then you’ll need spend 600 dollars to take off that.
Hi reporter,
Both Ferratum and Loan Ranger have internal dispute resolution processes and a section on their websites where you can submit your complaint. However, it’s important to note that each of these lenders can only approve you for a loan if they feel you have the capacity to repay.
It’s also helpful to keep in mind that every credit provider (banks, credit unions and short-term lenders such as Ferratum and Loan Ranger) will list any loan applications you make with them on your credit file.
If you feel that, after submitting a complaint with Ferratum/Loan Ranger, your dispute isn’t resolved, you can take the matter further to the credit ombudsman.
I hope this helps,
Elizabeth
i am in middle of applying and it said it would take about 3 min to check my bank account. but its been analysing transactions for ages now. it has been more like 45 min not 3 min. why is this happening.
Hi Nic,
Apologies for the delay, but as the application is handled directly by Loan Ranger you’ll need to contact them to find out what the problem is. If you’re on their website you can click “Contact Us” to get their contact information. You can submit an online form, give them a call or use their live chat service.
I hope this helps!
Elizabeth
Do you do credit check for a loan amount of $2000?
Will I be getting an ENQUIRY on my credit file?
Hi Fari,
Thanks for your inquiry.
As part of the application and verification process, Loan Ranger will check your credit history. Once a lender conducts a credit check, that will be considered an enquiry on your credit file.
Cheers,
May
Do you have a branch here in Philippines?
Hi Joane,
Unfortunately these loans are only available in Australia. You’ll need to contact a lender in the Philippines to find a loan.
Sorry I couldn’t be of more assistance,
Elizabeth
There’s already one for the Philippines. loanranger.ph
Applied for a loan all went smoothly until they decided that the automated system could not verify me, then despite being able to supply my work government photo ID, medicare card, atm card, original birth certificate and tax return document this wasn’t enough as their “internal” process says that you must have a government photo ID with your birth date on it. Original birth certificate not enough. Time wasting and to rigid in their own internal rules.
Hi Donna,
Thanks for your review. Loan Ranger also invite customer feedback directly through its website which you’re welcome to do.
Thanks,
Elizabeth
How long to get approved by loan rangers?
Hi Scott,
Thanks for your question.
You can be approved by Loan Ranger in a few minutes as they use an online system for applications. Once you’ve been approved you can receive your funds quickly – if you bank with one of the Big Four banks this is soon after you’ve signed your contract and been allocated in a ‘funding run’ (you will be advised of this) and if you bank with a different institution it is usually within 24 hours.
I hope this has helped.
Thanks,
Elizabeth
Few minutes decision, takes them usually 6-7hours And then another 24 hours to see the money in your account and I’m with Anz
Hi Paddy,
Thanks for your comment.
Loan Ranger says that it will send your funds to you following approval and once you have been allocated in a funding run. The actual time it takes depends on when you are approved and what time you apply. However, Loan Ranger give no specific time frame for this, so times may differ. If you have any further enquiries, complaints or comments, you may want to direct these to Loan Ranger directly.
Thanks,
Elizabeth
