WARNING – Rescue Financial Services Appears to Be a ****
I want to warn other business owners and individuals to be extremely careful when dealing with Rescue Financial Services. I recently engaged with them while urgently looking for funding for my business. After doing proper research, I discovered multiple serious red flags that strongly suggest this operation may be *****ulent. Information about the company is very unclear, and several details do not add up when you investigate further. It is extremely concerning that companies like this target people who are already in difficult financial situations and desperately looking for assistance. Businesses that are struggling are vulnerable, and misleading them with false promises of funding is completely *********. Based on my experience and research, I strongly advise anyone considering Rescue Financial Services to do very thorough due diligence before sharing personal information, signing anything, or paying any upfront fees. Please be careful and protect yourselves. If something feels wrong, trust your instincts and walk away. Hopefully this review helps prevent other people and businesses from falling into the same situation.

Undisclosed Fees, Misrepresentation, and Suspected Advance-Fee Loan ****
I am posting this review to warn other consumers based on my direct experience with a company trading as Rescue Finance. I app**** for an online loan after finding their website and believing them to be a legitimate South African credit provider. During the application process, I was informed via telephone, email, and WhatsApp that an upfront administration/processing fee of R2,999 was required. No other fees were disclosed or agreed to. After payment, I was instructed to pay an additional R4,500, described as a “Loan Customer Protection Plan.” This fee was never mentioned in the loan agreement or any prior communication. When I questioned this, no clear contractual basis was provided. Upon cancelling the application, the company then alleged that a “credit repair” process had been initiated without my request or consent and attempted to impose a further R1,150 cancellation fee, which was also never disclosed upfront or included in the contract. I am currently under debt review, which makes this experience particularly concerning, as legitimate lenders should not extend credit under these circumstances. At no point did a loan amount get paid out — only repeated requests for additional fees. Based on this experience, I strongly caution consumers to be extremely careful. Do not pay any upfront fees beyond what is clearly stipulated in writing, and be wary of new charges introduced after payment. I have escalated this matter to the relevant regulatory authorities for investigation. This review is posted in good faith to inform and protect other consumers.

Fast , Efficient, what I call "Great service"
I had a bit of an emergency and needed some cash urgently to sort out something really important. As a first-time client, I decided to try Rescue Finance. Their site said the money would reflect within 60 minutes, but honestly, it hit my account in just 15 minutes! I can’t explain how relieved and happy I was. I’ve used other short-term loan companies before (and I actually work for one myself), but I’ve never seen service this fast and efficient. Rescue Finance really came through for me, and I’ll definitely recommend them to anyone who finds themselves in a tight spot.

REFUND NOT PAID BY RESCUE FINANCE
<div>I am not happy with the service I received from rescue finance. I have been requesting for my refund and have not received even after the 21 days that has been stipulated. When I called they said that they are still processing they will let me know. This is so frustrating because it's money I paid and now claiming it back because I no longer want to continue with the process. I don't understand why is it delaying and I have complied with everything they requested.</div>
