BEWARE of RouthWell Finance Taking Money Without Permission

Hi all,

I just checked my Barclay's bank statement and noticed £0.99 taken without permission by Routhwell Finance Ltd on 15th July 2015.

It's not the amount that's infuriated me, it's the principle. I have never applied or dealt with this company ever.

I found out ROUTHWELL FINANCE is a broker, not a lender and they charge £68 for showing a list of more scam brokers.

There's no valid email address on their website to complain and I'd rather not call and earn them more money.

So, what can I do to report them?

Thanks in advance,
Ned.

I cancelled my card immediately, just need to call them now.

To be honest, I have no idea. I only use it for direct debits.

So, a company just "guesses" your bank card details and decides to try a 99p transaction? ........

Hmmmm

So you mean you've been looking for a loan and some of the brokers are charging an admin fee for this and you gave them your card details
