    If it's Credit Flex then they are part of Evolution I think, their kinda sub sub prime division.

    So is it creditflex or flexcredit?

    If it is flexcredit, it looks like yet another broker. I can't see any T&C's on their site whic rings alarm bells but TBH, I think all brokers play the same tune... charge a fee then forward your details to the lowest of the sub prime market to hound you.

    What is the actual problem you are having?

    http://www.flexcredit.co.uk/

    Looks just like the hundreds of other broker scams to me, just out for the application fee and nothing else.

    A company to be avoided.

    I don't think a Loan Shark exactly. A Loan Shark lends you money, then breaks your kneecaps when you don't give him your soul.

    Flexcredit won't lend you money, just rob a few quid then ignore you.

    flexcredit offer a good product that helps manage their finances.
    I'm sure it does help manage flexcredit's finances - they charge people a fee for finding them loans (or not). I imagine its a profitable business to be in.

    When I say flexcredit's finances I of course mean your finances Anver and your wife's as you are the 2 sole directors of the company.....
