Loan Refund Calculator
The below calculator gives an idea of how much interest you will potentially be refunded with a claim due to interest charges. Any compensation paid would include an extra statutory interest on your refunded payments, which is not included in the below calculation. The actual compensation you receive could be substantially more, especially with old loans.
Use this loan interest calculator to give you a quick estimate of how much compensation you may be eligible to claim from a mis-sold loan. The calculator is intended as a guide only and is not a confirmation that a refund is due.

Advantage Finance Claims
A recent Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) investigation discovered widespread evidence of widespread mis sold car finance. As one car dealer openly admits in a recent article, “frankly, we were getting away with murder. We weren’t treating customers fairly and were, in effect, charging them to earn us money.” Some lenders have also been guilty of approving loans that were unaffordable, especially in the subprime market where Advantage Finance operates.
Advantage Finance's APR is typically 29.35%. As an example, if you take out a Hire Purchase Agreement repayable over 48 months. Vehicle Purchase Price: £7,500. Deposit: £0.00. Amount of Credit: £7,500. Acceptance Fee: £325.00. Interest Payable: £4,200.44. Option to Purchase Fee: £200.00. Total Charge For Credit: £4,725.44. 47 Monthly Repayments of £250.53 Followed By 1 Final Repayment of £450.53.
In their latest numbers, The Financial Ombudsman upheld 38% of complaints against Advantage Finance Ltd.

Was My Advantage Finance Loan Mis-sold?
Your Advantage Finance loan was mis-sold if the loan was unaffordable or the lender did not perform proper affordable ability checks. Signs that your loan(s) may have been unaffordable include:
You frequently consolidated loans or borrowed shortly after repaying a loan
-
Your loans from a single lender were regularly increasing in size
-
You missed some repayments
-
You made some repayments late
-
The loan repayment was a substantial part of your disposable income
-
You were using one form of debt to fund another.
Don’t worry if you can’t find the agreement or remember who the dealership was. You just need the name of the company you made the payments to. You should be able to find this information on your old bank statements.
If you think you have a claim, you need to act quickly as there are statutory deadlines, known as limitation periods, that apply to mis-selling claims. If your car finance product was taken out over six years ago, you can still claim if you only became aware of the potential claim within the last 3 years.

FAQs
Why Use The Claims Guide For My Claim?
Help Maximising Claims - We will go through your previous borrowing and help you claim from an extensive list of lenders. Other claims companies will more likely turn you away if you are not claiming against one of their few approved lenders.
Low Fees - Our rates are also competitive and lower than many other claims management companies. You pay nothing upfront and we work on a no win no fee basis. A breakdown of our fee structure can be seen here.
Professional - Each claim is different and specific circumstances that are relevant to the claim should be explained by a professional. The Financial Ombudsman has previously been unable to progress some complaints that involved a “template” or “standard letter”.
How Much Will I Receive If My Claim Is Successful?
If you successfully claim a refund from a lender, you can claim back the interest and charges on your loans, plus, typically, 8% statutory interest. For more information on how this is calculated click here.
What Information Do I Need to Provide?
You just need to provide the name of your lender and your personal details including the address that you lived at when registering with them. Once you have given these we can obtain details of any loans where a refund may be due.
How much will I be charged?
Claiming through us always works on a no win no fee basis, meaning you won't pay a thing unless you win compensation. You will have the right to cancel the agreement within 14 days with no penalty. If you cancel after 14 days you may be charged for work done up until the time of cancellation. We use multiple partners to ensure we are able to offer claims against all lenders, from whom we receive payments. The exact fee structure will depend on which lender you are claiming against, as this decides which of our partners is most suitable for your claim. A breakdown of our fee structure can be seen here. The fees for Diesel Emissions Claims are calculated differently due to it being a group action lawsuit.
