Lending Laws
The FCA (Financial Conduct Authority) has strict rules by which lending bodies must abide.
Law #1: Loans MUST be Affordable to YOU
Your credit history should be checked if you are wanting to borrow money from.
Any lender needs to ensure you can make repayments of the borrowed amount and the APR without getting into other debts.
They should analyse your income and ongoing expenses to make sure you can pay it back without becoming vulnerable, such as not benign able to buy food or pay rent.

Law #2: You Can Only Pay So Much Loan Interest
A second law is the caps on interest and fees that can be applied to all personal loans. A lender can only charge 0.8% of fees each day which includes both fees and interest.
Moreover, you are not allowed to be charged more than 100% of the amount of money you borrowed on short-term loans.
Law #3: Laws for of Collecting Loan Repayments
Multiple laws govern what loan providers can and cannot do when collecting money from your bank account. Lenders typically ask to set up a continuous payment instruction with your bank.
This means lenders can go into your bank account and take the payment when agreed on each month. The bank will not stop them and you will not have to pay them over the phone or online with your bank card.
Here are the most important rules to be aware of – and the ones that can get you a refund:
1. They Must Give Notice
Lenders must provide prior notice when they will be collecting money from your bank account.
They must do this to prevent you from being short of money to pay for essentials. If they take money without telling you they will, they have broken the law.
2. They Must Take the Full Amount
You might not have enough to pay this month’s repayment. But if you cannot pay it all, lenders are not allowed to take part payments unless you tell them they can.
This law is designed to stop lenders from taking your last little bit of money and prevent serious financial hardship and poverty.
No Third Attempts Allowed
If a lender has made two attempts to get the full amount and failed, they are not allowed to make a third attempt.
