    No you don't, your contract was never made as finance was not agreed, you husband has never made any form of contract so has no obligation, I am surprise that they are allowed to make a finance application for your husband without his authorisation,(or did he give it?), in fact I am pretty sure it is illegal.

  • We did enquire about a sofa at DFS and the lady we spoke to said that if we applied for and didn't get the credit, then we were locked into buying it and would have to pay up front in cash.

    We've gone no further so far.
