Just hoping someone can help, i ve had aloan with HSBC for 7 years and i just wanna get rid.
Loan amount £7690
Term 57 months
Paying£180 per month
Remaining £3400
APR 13.3%
I ve asked for an early settlement figure but they cant work one out because of un applied interest is this true ? Asked them to add it on, to date with the interest but they cant ?! Is this right ?
Ihave £3000 saved up is this worth offering ? Bank just wont give me an answer.
Thanks

    Term 57 months is this how far you are into the loan? or how much you have remaining. (I'm assuming it cannot be the total length as you say you have already had it for 7years (84months)

    Remaining £3400 have they given you this figure?

    Have you always made all payments on time? If they have given you the figure of £3400 as the balance (not the total of the remaining payments) then I cannot see they will accept only £3000.

    how many payments have you made

    did you ask them to send you a settlement figure or what exactly?
  • they need to send you a settlement figure within 7 days of you asking for it...
    We've spent decades teaching people about their rights, but nothing about their responsibilities.

    The balance is£3314.16 without interest. Im paying about £23 a month interest at the moment
