Hmmm - thinking now I may have scared them off with telling them about a previous experience with WHUnsecured and how I got my money back by kicking off. They did not ring back!!! Bothered?0

ANY company that asks you for an admin fee will be a broker.
It is strange that they all usually ask for about fifty quid. Legally, they can only charge £4.95 for the admin costs, so if people have paid the fifty quid, they are entitled to the difference back.
For a £500 loan, the broker will pass your details to home collection companies (provi, etc) or payday loan firms. Go direct to these companies.
If you have already tried all the possibilities directly, then the broker will get the same results as you, but it will cost you fifty nicker to get another 'no'
If you are being turned down by home creditors and payday loan companies, you are in big trouble.0 -
hello,i didnt know these were a scam and ive pay'd £50,do you think i will get it back.
the reason why i came on here to check them out is when ive been ringing them they keep putting the phone down,and when they do talk to you they tell you they cant help ring customer service,well thats a joke 40 mins on hold and still didnt get through,im really worried now as they have my bank details and my girlfreinds as i used her card to pay the £500 -

I got a phone call from Direct Finace saying i had been accepted for £750.00 loan they then said they would call me back i got a phone call back from them saying i had definatly got it i was so excited that i had finally been given a loan they then asked for my bank details which i asked them about before giving them they assured me that no money would be taken out of my bank as they were not a brokers i gave over my details stupidly and then went to check my bank account as i didnt think somethin was right i then realised that they had taken £49.99 out of my bank account i rang them straight away and they said that they were training new staff and this was a mistake on there behalf i have sent them 2 letters trying to get a refund as they have told me i am entitled to it and have still not recieved any correspondence back from them and it has been 2 months i send both letters recorded delivery so i know they have recieved them i am now considering phoning trading standards as they might be able to help has anyone ever been refunded?0
