Interest rates charged for borrowing facilities are negotiable at the time of application and are normally based at a margin above our Bank base rate or Bank of England base rate (official bank rate).

If however, we are requested to investigate a specific interest calculation there may be a charge for the time and cost involved in this investigation. Details of any charge, if applicable, will be advised to you at the time the service is requested.
