    Doesn't the FCA cap apply so you shouldn't need to repay more than twice what was leant?

    That's just for payday lenders, this would be a normal loan but with a horrific rate so I think is technically allowed.

    On a long enough loan term, even at a low rate you'll pay back more than twice what was borrowed - look at the posts on here from people taking out 25+ year loans at 6%.
