How does Very.co.uk work?
Posted on 21. Jan, 2010 by admin.
Very.co.uk is different to most online clothes stores, and this concerns payment, and methods of payment. The process is simple, and easy – and there re indeed several ways in which a customer can pay for their goods. During Christmas, it can often be helpful for stores to offer ‘Buy Now, Pay Later’ incentives, and very.co.uk does just this – but with a difference. In a scheme they call ‘Take 3’, the website allows customers to purchase, say, a dress for £45, without actually paying anything upfront.
Their clothes are duly delivered and the customer then pays £15 one month later (this can be set up via direct debit, or the user can simply log into their account and pay from there). One month later, another £15 is paid, and in the third month, the final £15 is paid, therefore totaling £40 in all, and not a penny more. The difference between very.co.uk’s method and other online clothing stores, is that no interest is paid – the £40 is paid in three manageable installments, and the transaction is complete. Very.co.uk also offer their very own personal loan service. That word, loan, is often regarded as a pejorative term nowadays, and responsible borrowing is encouraged, but very.co.uk’s friendly and helpful approach means taking advantage of their scheme can be worry free.
Using their online calculator, you’ll receive a decision within minutes, and customers can choose to take a ‘3 Month Repayment Holiday’ at the start of their loan, in which nothing as to be paid. Repayment’s can be made over anywhere between one, and seven years. Individuals can even get their cheque through within 24 hours of being accepted onto the very.co.uk personal loan plan. All in all, the website’s approach to payment is a no pressure one, and all the control it with the customer – a flexible range of basic payment methods are also available, ranging from a simple debit card transaction, to visiting your local Post Office!
