Claim Logbook Money compensation

Logbook Money ltd provides clients with cash logbook loans for car owners across England and Wales.

The firm offers loans between £1k-10k, which can be borrowed over periods of between 18 months and four years.

What Are Logbook Money Compensation Claims?

Customers who are issued a loan agreement and who cannot afford to repay it or feel they have been given more than they needed to, may have had insufficient background checks. With this in mind, if the firm that lent you the money failed to thoroughly assess your circumstances, they could have participated in irresponsible or unaffordable lending. For lenders, there is no particular set of lending checklist criteria to follow, however, they must act fairly by conducting reasonable and adequate checks.

One important factor in any form of lending includes being confident the client can afford to pay their debt in a timely manner and in full without having to borrow more money or fall behind on other financial commitments.

In June 2022, Logbook Money ltd was advised by the Financial Ombudsman Service to follow the below guidance in order to settle a customer car logbook loan complaint :

• Waive the outstanding balance on the account; and
• Refund to Mrs. A payments she made above the amount of £1,000 she borrowed. To be clear this includes any interest or charges associated with the credit or its collection; and
• Add 8% simple interest per annum to these overpayments from the date they were paid to the date of refund; and
• Pay Mrs. A an amount of £200 to reflect the distress and inconvenience she experienced when it recovered her car; and
• Remove any adverse information about this loan from Mrs A’s credit file; and
• Revoke the Bill of Sale for Mrs. A’s car if this is still in place and return any relevant documents to her if it hasn’t already done so
