Hi all

please can anyone give me some advice before i contact them.

 

I got a new boiler from b/g in 2007 and they financed it with w/f

i was paying £68 pm but now i pay £80 pm.

 

I have been paying every month

but now my hours have been cut at work and i cannot afford the monthly payments and i was going to get in contact with w/f to see if i could reduce my payments to £20 pm but i have read all the horror stories from people who try to deal with them.

 

my question is

can i reduce my payments

and ask for the interest to be frozen

and can w/f add other cost on to my loan like missed payment fees and fees for sending a letter.

 

any help will be most appreciated

kind regards

michael

 

Just a bit more information for you.

I got a statement from from them in November and it had default sum interest on it. i did miss one payment about four years ago but i increased my payment and it is well payed off so i dont understand why i am still paying default interest. i did phone them up and they said i will still be getting interest on the loan as i defaulted on it.my monthly payment was £69 pm i have been paying them £88 pm for the last three years i keep getting phone calls from them asking me to increase my payments so i dont think they will accept a reduce payments even if i cannot afford to pay them the full amount. one more thing when i took out the loan they said my last payment will be on november 2017 now they say it will be march 2018.

Hi please can anyone give me some advice.

 

I took out a loan with welcome finance in November 2007 over a 10 years for £3907.60 paying £79.00 per month

 

 

due to being on the sick from work i missed 1 payment

i phoned them up and was told not to worry just start paying the following month.

 

i cancelled my d/d so not to get bank charges

then i started getting letters from welcome saying i was getting charged £10 for every letter they send me. This was a total of £150 i managed to get the fees waived.

 

I have sent them a Subject Access Request and got my details back this week

but they have only give me the information up to 11-12-13

i am missing 01-01-14 to date.

 

in the loan history i have been charge a total of £20 fee assessment.

 

Now they are saying because i have missed a payment its going to add another three months onto the loan

surely this cannot be right as i have been paying them £85 per month from 19-07-10

then i increased the payments to £88 from the 19-09 10

 

 

i would of thought i would pay the loan off earlier.

Sorry for the long post but i am at my wits end with this company.

Hi mick

 

Send them a chase letter for the missing information. Also did you have PPI on the loan?

 

Send the following chase letter, fill in the xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

 

Account Number: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

I am in receipt of the documents that you have supplied in response to my Data Protection Act information request dated xxxxxxxxxx. The disclosure of personal data is incomplete in that at least the following documents are missing.

 

1) You have failed to provide xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx.

2) You have failed to provide xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

 

This is not an exhaustive list by any means, it is just an example of some of the information I am missing.

 

Accordingly, I have to tell you that you have not yet complied with your obligations under the Data Protection Act 1998.

 

The time for compliance with my request has now expired. If you do not comply fully with my Subject access request within 7 days, I shall apply to the county court for an order to enforce compliance, together with damages at the discretion of the court.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Thanks will do.

Ive been talking to someone at work and he said It could well be. A missed payment, with perhaps 7 years of interest on it, plus fees, could easily add up to another 3 month.
