Welcome Finance. WWYD??

  • When you topped up the loan how long a term have they spread it across? Where did you sign the documents~?~ Welcome finance tried to hide allot of their bad debt and they did it buy topping up loans over silly terms. And most of the agreements are null and void. Their are several company's now helping people claim back their unaffordable credit agreements.
    Its the main reason why they have stopped trading for new business. The CEO and the board have been suspended for trading illegally and trying to cover up their bad debt! Their is hope yet...

    Hi - I have a similar issue and was using LoanCheck to help with my situation. But it seems they have either gone under or not responding... these companies you mention, could you ellaborate please?

    thanks

    When did you take your finance out with Loancheck, have found some details on Companies house, one have dissolved and another still active according to the details on Companies house, the best way to check is by the actual companies number, you may have on your paperwork, if you still have this.

    Just a quick update. I wrote to them saying pretty much what I did in the first post. does it really take 8+ weeks to get something from your files. I asked them to therefore either tell me what information they were waiting on as I keep everything I have very been given or sent by them or issue final response.



    Today I received a further letter from them dated 20th October I will paraphrase. blah blah accept not responsibility blah bla refute your suggestions however on this occasion, as a gesture of good will we would like to offer you a full refund of PPI plus interest plus 8% statutory interest.
