We pride ourselves on honesty

We are a family owned private company that doesn’t need to please big corporate shareholders.

A lender you can trust

We have been around for over 100 years and are still owned and managed by the family that founded the company.

Takng our responsibility seriously

We are Regulated and Authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority and we are members of the Consumer Credit Trade Association.

Our aim is to lend you what you can afford to repay. Our agents will assess your circumstances and discuss with you what amount of borrowing suits you best.

A friendly approach

If you experience difficulties we will work with you to help you manage your finances through a troubled period. All our costs for credit are included up front so there are no late payment fees or penalty charges even if you miss a repayment.

Our Agents

Our agents are friendly, professional full-time employees from your local area. They call at your house at a time suitable for you, helping you keep your repayments on time. They help you manage your account and answer questions. When you apply for credit they assist you in completing the application and deliver the loan to your door when you are approved.

Our agents pride themselves on the service they give and will go the extra mile to arrange a loan quickly for you, help you choose a retail product and build a good working relationship with you.

How we are different from other lenders

Unlike other lenders such as payday loan companies, credit cards, overdrafts, credit unions or bank loans you know you are in control of what you owe. The amount won’t build up through extra charges, fees or added interest.

Your agent calling each week keeps you on track with your repayments helping you pay off what you owe on time. A good payment record allows you to borrow more money should you wish and can afford to do so.
