We can't say if its staggering or not as you haven't given any detail. However, it's almost certainly correct.
You need to confirm it with the lender and agree a repayment plan.0 -
The only thing staggering here is the % rates that Equifinance charge so highly likely it is correct.
Never associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.
Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.

With second charge loans such as this, apart from the 37% they initially charge you in interest, there are other fees to pay as well, this will include a monthly fee for being in arrears, interest on your arrears, a fee for being in an arrangement, and any other fee included in your agreement that they can charge you.
Being in arrears massively increases your debt, especially at that interest rate.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Debt free wannabe, Credit file and ratings, and Bankruptcy and living with it boards.
