Many thousands of
loan agreements have been found to be unsafe following a revision of
the 1974 Consumer Credit Act. As a result, many thousands of unenforceable
credit contracts have been discovered. Are you one of the people with
such an unenforceable loan?
Our experts will
obtain permission to look at the original credit contract to see if
it contains the details which have been required since April 2007 on
all such agreements. Such items include a signature (seems obvious,
but some credit agreements used to be filled in by automated methods
and actually lack a signature) a list of specific charges being made
and a detailed account of any aspects required by the 2006 amendment
to the original consumer laws.
Having unenforceable
credit contracts does not mean that such debts are written off, although
in some cases further work can be done to clear the debt from your credit
record. In reality, all it means is that the creditor may not bother
you to repay this particular loan. If he does he may be in trouble.
This has been described
as a loophole in the law. But it isn’t really a loophole at all.
It is a perfectly legitimate way of exposing unenforceable credit contracts
and similar agreements which have been hastily drafted and which have
not kept up with the changes in legislation that have been made to protect
consumers from increasingly greedy lenders.
