How It Works
In 1974 the government passed a law to protect
consumers from being miss-sold financial products such as credit cards and
loans. All credit agreements made before the 4th of April 2007 have
to comply with 14 points of legislation outlined in the Consumer Credit
Act. If the lender has not complied with 1 point in this act then
the financial agreement maybe unenforceable.
Good news for you as the consumer because a high percentage of all
agreements taken out prior to April 2007 are deemed to not comply!
Therefore this means the credit provider has lent the finance illegally
and cannot ask for the monies back.
At Edwards Knight & Co we specialise in Unfair Credit Agreements and
can assist you to establish whether your agreement is unenforceable.
We have set up a process with a team of independent Solicitors where you
will receive an Audit report explaining which points your agreement may
have been breached. The audit report is then passed to a separate firm of
Barristers that work on a no win no fee basis to clear your debt.
There currently needs to be a minimum balance of £2,500 and a
maximum of £25,000 per credit agreement. You will only ever
be charged a single upfront fee per agreement
(please
see costs),
which you can pay by credit card or cheque. If you are looking to clear
credit card debts you can add the fee onto your credit card that you are
applying with! This fee is to purchase your unique audit report.
There will be no affect to your credit history as this process is
due to a fault the financial providers have made that makes it illegal for
them to pursue your debt and therefore they have to settle the debts.
