    Just read the thousands of posts on here about Welcome. Never, ever, pay an up front fee to a broker - no decent one will ask for a fee because they get their commission from the lender; anyway, they don't do anything you couldn't do yourself by surfing the web.
    I used to think that good grammar is important, but now I know that good wine is importanter.

    they are predatory and not that good. Even with bad credit you can do better.

    And as the other poster said never pay any upfront fees.

    how are you paying? If you have given debit/credit card details then the only way to stop it would be to contact your bank and cancel the card.

    by debit could i not just ask bank to stop it coming out without canceling the card?

    Hi again -
    If this is the company you are using (http://www.welcomeloansuk.com/welcome-loans-uk.asp ) this company are brokers not lenders, they are doing no more than what you could do for yourself
