High Risk Loans (HRL)

Three unauthorized late repayments will lead to automatic account closure

The following will lead to an automatic HRL

  1. First time customers
  2. Three late repayments (including underpayments
  3. Exceeding your credit limit.

Making repayments will increase your credit limit and decrease the amount of interest you pay.

Changes and Alterations (C&A)

Changing repayment cycles i.e. skipping a month and or editing terms to an existing agreement. The fee for changes & alterations is £50.00

If you change a payment date and still fail to make the payment on the new date, you will be charged a late fee in addition to the £50 charge

Bad-Debt Levy (BDL)

A bad-debt levy is added to all credit agreements which is a percentage of the annual provision.

This fee is included when calculating APR

Loan Extensions (LEx)

This applies to extending a loan past its agreed fixed duration and NOT to any forbearance procedures.

Example; a customer cannot afford £10.00 per month on a loan totaling £120.00 for 12 months. Reducing the payments to £8 will increase the duration to 15 months.

The fee is £15.00 per month

To protect the consumer, all loans are limited to a maximum extension of 3 months (Maximum fee of £45.00). All fees are collected at the end of the initial loan period and do not add to the duration of the initial loan period i.e. there are NO fees on loan extensions.

Collection

As collecting via Direct Debit can often leave people overdrawn with their bank, we allow our customers to pick their repayment dates and pay via cash or online transfer. This way, our customers can make flexible payments without leaving themselves out of pocket. However, it becomes the customers’ responsibility to make the payments. If a payment is continuously missed, we may arrange for an agent to make a doorstep collection. This has a fee of £50.00

Late repayment fee (LRF)

Please refer to our Terms & Conditions document for more detailed information.

There are NO Late Fees for Students and people in receipt of state benefits.

A £50.00 admin charge will be applied to your account if:

  • You fail to notify us that your payment will be late on 3 occasions. The charge will be applied and your account will be closed immediately.
  • After 3 overdue payments, a high-risk flag will appear on your account.

**********5 WORKING DAYS NOTICE MUST BE GIVEN**********

Late fees are charged from and including the due date up until the day prior to the actual payment date. Exemptions require documented proof showing why payment is late.
