    Can anyone decipher the consumer credit early settlement regulations figures regarding a loan i have??

    [url=http://www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si2004/20041483.htm]The Consumer Credit (Early Settlement) Regulations 2004[/url]

    theres the formular!!

    I borrowed £400, on 10th april, was charged £328 for credit, my balance is now £588 and i want to clear it this week. APR is... 272.2% :puke:The term was due to last 52 weeks at £14

    I had 3 bald tyres and was skint so i had no choice!!! Can anyone tell me how much i should be looking to pay back?

    Once this is paid im back in the market for a new heli, so save me as much as possible!!!

    Please dont suggest i wait for debt recovery to collect it and have them take me to court, i work for 6 debt recovery firms and im liable to be sacked if that happens!!

    Thanks, Tom

      Do you mean 27.2 % interest as 272.2 seems a bit on the high side?

            I think you need an accountant to work that out .have you asked for a final payment from the loan company they may just charge you a months intrest.

              Yes for some silly crazy reason, despite having good active credit, nobody would increase finance or lend enough to cover this years MOT! Provident was the quickest way to keep on the road. They have given me a figure now of about £350, making my total amount paid back on £400 is £496 so they have charged me 3 months interest altogether. Im just trying to work out if thats normal to charge an extra month when the interest is paid weekly...

              Fortunatly ive just had good news regarding my self assesment so im quids in and able to clear it!

                      Jeeez, I just looked at their website too. Surely no one is that desperate for £400 that they'd pay £130 to borrow it for a month, thats insane!

                      Especialy when you see what the Nationwide give me in interest on my savings!
