So Lets Shaft Our Farmers.....
News6 mins ago
Hi
I am new to this so please bare with me, We recently applied to a finance company called Wentworth Direct Finance for a consolidation loan.
We received a letter stating that our loan has been accepted by their underwriting department.
We had to send a fee of �49.00 to cover brokerage fees and the loan aproval form, as soon as they were received they would process the loan immediatly and the lending agent will be in touch.
I am worried after reading through many of the posts here that we may have been ripped off. This company has not been mentioned here and we went straight to the company direct and not through external ones like tenant loans ect...
How can I find out more about wentworth? Are there legit companies out there that do charge up front?
Also if it has been accepted by an underwriting department does this mean that we have definately got the loan?
Thanks!!!

As I have posted before, brokers are entitled to charge a fee, but if you do not accept one of their loans (for whatever reason) within 6 months, they are only entitled to keep �5 of the fee and have to give the rest back.
With regard to Wentworth, just try a Google search and see if any complaints websites come up.
Unfortunately as loosehead says, you can't expect to get a fab rate if you credit isn't the best, but can try damage limitation by refusing the extortionate rates
