Swift is a business that I had never heard of until the death of my father aged 78. I have collected a large amount of paper work and found that he used Swift to help finish a house he was building for himself - the Bank had already refused to lend him the £14k outstanding needed to finish the work. He was 72 when the loan was taken out over a 25 year period. He was a self employed market trader with little to no income. I can not understand why anyone would lend him monies with so clear a prospect of him never being able to make the repayments. The house is up for sale and Swift are piling on the interest on a daily rate. Anyone know how the family stand when dealing with them and who would be the best persons to contact?
