Provident Personal Credit @ www.providentpersonalcredit.com

Provident Personal Credit

Provident Personal Credit is the UK’s leading home collection loan lender. They operate through www.providentpersonalcredit.com and they did also compete in the doorstep loans niche through the sister-brand Greenwood. They have closed this now though that is likely due to their newer released services that includes Satsuma and Tandem. The larger group of course also provides the Vanquis credit cards. This is a company with a rich and historic past. Joshua Kelley Waddilove was the founder way back in 1880. In those early days, vouchers were handed out that could be exchanged for food and clothing with repayments made in weekly instalments. This is similar to what they are still doing.
