    I really don't understand ow the experience of taking a loan can be either good or bad. Read the conditions, accept the conditions, and then everything should run perfectly. These companies are run by computers and their systems are set up to follow the standard terms. The only time that errors should occur is at the point of human intervention. When you sign for a loan ignore ANY AND EVERYTHING the sales person says to you and go by what is printed on the loan form and every thing will be OK. If any of your queries are answered with "don't worry about that" , "we do tis all the time" run mile because when the !!!! hits the fan it will all be denied .

    My God, that's a name that was around back in the 1970s and 80s

    I thought they'd closed down due to the credit crunch?

    Part of RBS. Many worse places to borrow from. Don't let them take you to town on the fee.

    They still provide quite a lot of vehicle / equipment finance etc to businesses (although I have found there are usually not the cheapest in that sector)
