    lenders dont see your credit score, they see your history.

    Why only £200, surely there were other options than a loan broker.

    Oh and dont enter your card details on a loan brokers website.
  • I don't see how it's any of your business why £200 and if she had any other means, that's just plain rude

  • Thankyou for the email address
    I had £34.98 Taken out of my account. Under the name Savvy cards. I emailed them to the effect a third party deducted that money without my permission. In two days I had the money refunded.
    At the same time I had another amount £34.99 under the name YESSAL. I cant find any company off that name ,but suspect its connected to Savvy cards ,has anyone heard of this name
    Any help appreciated


    98, taken out of my account

    I really don't understand this.

    I browse lots of websites.
    None of them get my credit card details until I'm ready to do business with them.

    Have I misunderstood how these websites mentioned here work?

    Some people shouldn't be using the internet. For goodness sake READ and understand what you are signing up to.

    I've just had a look at the Savvy Benefits Card website.

    On the Home page, if you scroll down it very clearly states:
    Interested in becoming a member?

    You can with a one off sign up fee of £34.99 and a monthly recurring billing amount of £19.99
    Pop in your details and you can get started right away.
    I'm not sure how the OP (back in Feb 2019) got to this website after applying for a loan.
    I'd never enter my bank and card details when applying for anything.

    TBH, if I read the words 'membership' on any website, I'd be running for the hills (with my undisclosed financial details firmly in my pocket).

    Sorry but that can not happen.

    Can you explain how your card would get charged IF all you did was browse the website ?

    Did you by any chance enter your card details ?


    Did you buy anything ?
