Ocean Finance – loans & remortgages company overview

ocean finance

Ocean Finance are one of the UK’s leading finance brokers. Established in 1991, they employ over 250 staff and help over 30,000 people every year to get finance in the form of a loan or a remortgage.

Advantages of Ocean Finance

Ocean Finance have been helping people since 1991 – that’s over 15 years! During that time, they have come across individuals in many different circumstances. This means that whatever your situation, and whatever you want to use your loan for, Ocean Finance have dealt with someone in a similar situation before.

Ocean are also a registered member of the Finance Industry Standards Association (FISA). This means that they offer higher standards of service than is required by law.

According to their website, they also say ‘yes’ to more people than any other finance broker.

Disadvantages of Ocean Finance

The most prominent disadvantage is the interest rate. At the time of writing, you could get an unsecured loan with typical, variable rates from 6.5% APR – 7% APR with many high street lenders. Ocean’s typical rate was 13.8% APR. Whether this has gone up or down since this article was written, the fact is you may be paying more in interest than you have to.

Ocean say ‘yes’ to more people because of the rates they offer. They are more suited to people with a bad credit history as these individuals may struggle to get a loan elsewhere – certainly at a rate of 6.5% APR.

If you have bad credit and have been turned down for a loan or remortgage elsewhere then Ocean Finance may be able to help you. If you have a good credit history, you may be better considering a loan from a high street lender.
