Sunshine Loans
Based on recent customer reviews, Sunshine Loans is facing significant customer dissatisfaction centred on loan disbursement and communication failures. Customers consistently mention approving DebiCheck mandates without receiving the promised funds, while debit orders still proceed against their accounts. A recurring theme is the inability to reach the company, with phone lines reportedly not working and emails going unanswered. Complaints also highlight unresolved refund requests, incorrect account statuses after settlement, and difficulties uploading bank statements through the application portal. A small number of customers do acknowledge prior positive experiences with the service.

I made a repayment few days after I got paid by them and I overpaid them with R124.55. They updated their system and promised to refund me back my money after 3 business days and now it's the third week but still no money. I emailed them twice reminding them about my refund still nothing. I thought they're the best but as far as I see they're a ****

Poor customer service. The contact number is not answered. When you call after hours the number becomes active but stays engaged. When trying to upload bank statements FNB does not work on their portal. They only seem to work with ABSA and CAPITEC. Awfull experience with this company.

Last month we worked fine and they sent me money after debit check. But I don't know what happened with sunshine this month because since I accepted their debit check, there is no sign of money coming in+. What's worse is that I've been trying to get hold of them the whole day, without any win. Help me, what else can I do from here now?

I am shocked ! I have requested that the debit order should not take place because, I didn't receive the loan amount from Sunshine loan but still the debit order took place and the money was not budgeted for ! Urgently bring back the money! I need to make payment , I have an urgent matter ! I never received money from Sunshine but why debit if you failed to loan me ! This is totally unacceptable.
