Green leaf finance!!!!!!!!

Options
Hi,
Yes I am stupid and had a pay day loan but the loan I took was with pounds to pockets, now when I receive my bank statement and look through it and see Green leaf finance has taken £49.99 out of my account I ask myself who are these people.
Please could someone give me some advice.

thank you

    Have you applied for a loan elsewhere? Green Leaf Finance are brokers, you must have given them your card details at some point. THe fee is clearly set out in their terms and conditions:

    Fees

    We charge a fee of up to £49.99 for providing our Personal Service to you for acting as your Exclusive Personal Finance Broker, this exclusivity lasts for a period of 6 months from the date of your application with us. We specify the fee as part of our communications with you. To clarify this, our fee is taken once your application for a loan has been accepted by one or more of our Lenders, this from our approved Bank of Lenders. To facilitate us processing payments and repayments, you authorise us to retain your charge, credit and or debit card details. If a Lender or Financier makes you a Loan or Finance offer, in addition to the fee we may also receive a variable commission from the lender or financier and you agree that we may retain it.
