In Loving Memory Of ‘Fallen’ Loan Apps

gravesite loan apps

There is nothing as disheartening as waking up to the discovery that the object you once held dear, is no longer available at your disposal.

Such reality stings far much worse when the previous bond cannot be replicated to existing bodies as a remedial solution to counter any eventualities.

This is the current situation that majority of borrowers encountered when they attempted to download their usual loan apps from the Playstore and in return were met with the below error message.

What is even more baffling is that this occurrence has persisted for long periods ( 6+ months ) without any acknowledgement from the providers to the extent of their social media accounts being dormant for close to the same duration.

This has led many borrowers to speculate that the lenders might be operating under the guise of different entities or have closed shop and ceased offering loans.

Either way, some of these loan apps offered favorable loan terms compared to the current lot and it is indeed sad to see that some of them are not operational.

Below are the ‘fallen’ loan apps that are presently absent (pun UN-intended) from the Playstore.

Note: At the time of publishing this article, these loan apps were not available in the playstore.
