    What is the date the charge was applied? Is it from the previous owners not removing a charge on completion? If so, query with your solicitors. Is it from a charge for a debt you had, is so contact firstplus.

    First plus were a subprime lender of secured loans in the 2000s

    I think Carol Vorderman used to advertise them and encourage people to 'splash out a little'

    They folded under huge negative publicity, aided by this site in its early days.

    Barclays took them over
