- Claim compensation for unfair charges
- Reduce or clear the outstanding balance
- Receive compensation from the lender

Unfair Credit Agreements
As a result of these modifications, you now have the grounds to actively pursue compensation from lenders with whom you have historical arrangements, on the basis that the lender has failed to comply with their obligations under the Act.
If your claim is successful, we will negotiate with the lender in an attempt to reduce or negate the outstanding balance. The savings on minimum repayments, as well as the capital balance could free up hundreds of pounds a month...
We provide full credit agreement review services to establish whether your credit agreements are enforceable or not.
What could make a credit agreement unenforceable?

- Compensation for interest charged throughout the life of the agreement
- Reimbursement of any charges paid throughout the duration of the agreement
