car finance company
Ah, you mean finance company. Get a loan, money goes into your account. Settle the 10% loan with that cash, pay off the loan at the lower rate. There may be a fee to settle early, check this in your car loan small print.
If your credit score is decent, without knowing the amount of finance you need, you should be able to at least halve that rate.
If, for example you've got £4,000 outstanding, you could even get a 0% credit card to be your 'loan'.
The above is all subject to credit checks - this site can help you find the best loan and credit card rates, and can do a soft check on them (which doesn't get recorded against you as an application) to tell you the LIKELIHOOD (not certainty) of you being accepted.0
