If you have a regulated Hire Purchase or Loan Agreement partial settlements, or over-payments, can be paid into your account at anytime throughout your agreement.

In order to benefit from a saving in the overall amount of interest you will pay, it is necessary for you to advise us how to apply these payments.  You have the option to either reduce the term of the agreement or to reduce the amount of the monthly payment¹.

By making a partial settlement, you will be entitled to a partial rebate of interest already applied to your agreement.  The value of rebate is calculated in line with consumer credit regulations² and is based on a ‘rebate date’ which is 1 month and 28 days from the date of receipt of any payment.  Any structure changes (reduction in monthly instalment or term) will also take effect from that date.

If requested by you³, we will advise you, by letter, within 7 days of receiving your over-payment as to how your agreement has been affected and how much interest has been saved.
