This year well over 50 companies and individuals were recognised in the Peer Review Process Awards, including Consumer Friend. The increase in numbers is in part due to the feedback we received from the industry.
You may be wondering who won all the Awards? Here are the details of the 2018 Credit Providers category winners.
