Credit Brokers - how they work
A credit broker can help you get a loan by dealing with a bank, building society or other financial organisation on your behalf. They can shop around for the best deals.
However, they will usually charge a fee for their service known as "commission", and this may be added to your loan.
You do not have to sign an agreement with a lender introduced by the broker. If a broker introduces a lender to you and you do not take up the lender's offer, then the broker is only allowed to charge you a fee of £3. If you have paid more than this, you are entitled to get the balance back.
