Your right to withdraw
You have the right under section 66A of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 to withdraw from the agreement without giving any reason before the end of 14 days beginning with the day after the day on which the agreement is made or, if later, the day after the day on which we will tell you that we have signed the agreement.
If you wish to withdraw you must give us notice by one of the following methods. Oral notice may be given to us by telephoning us on 0161 425 6363 or you may write to us by email to [email protected] or you may post notice to or deliver notice by hand to Payl8r Social Money Ltd, St Johns House, Barrington Road Altrincham WA14 1JY.
If you do give us notice of withdrawal and we have paid out the credit, you must repay to us the whole of the credit without delay and in any event by no later than 30 calendar days after giving notice of withdrawal. We charge interest at the daily rate set out on the first page of this agreement on any credit that is repaid after the interest free period.
If you wish to pay by debit card please telephone us on 0161 425 6363. If you wish to pay by cheque please send it by first class post to us with the cheque addressed to Social Money Ltd t/a Payl8r and allow 10 working days from the day you post the cheque to us to allow us to process the payment. If you withdraw from the agreement leaving sums outstanding we will notify credit reference agencies and, if you do not pay, we will take legal action to recover the amount due.
Continuous payment authority (CPA)
You agree to make your payment by continuous payment authority, or CPA. A CPA is an authority that you grant us to take your payments by debiting a debit or credit card, the details for which you give us at the time of your application (or other debit or credit card details which you must supply us if the original supplied card has ceased to function).
You grant Payl8r the authority to collect the repayments via a CPA automatically from your debit or credit card for the installment amount on the date of each monthly installment as detailed in the credit agreement. You agree to ensure that there are sufficient funds in your account linked to the debit or credit card(s) provided to cover payment by 0030 hrs on the repayment date.
Where there are insufficient funds in your account on the repayment date to cover full payment, we will attempt one further CPA for the full payment from your account 2 days later. If that is also unsuccessful we will attempt to take a partial payment for half the amount 3 days after that. If that is successful we will then attempt to take the remaining half payment. For any CPA attempt that is not on your scheduled date of repayment we will make you aware of the time and amount of the attempt before it is taken.
We will only undertake a maximum of two CPA attempts for the full amount and two CPA attempts for the half amount with regards to a scheduled repayment. You will be notified if these are unsuccessful and an oral or written agreement will be entered into with you before any further CPA attempts are made for each missed instalment.
We will only undertake a maximum of two CPA attempts for the full amount and two CPA attempts for the half amount with regards to a cost or charge that may have accrued since your last scheduled payment was due. We will notify you of the amount and date of each attempt before we make it. You will be notified if there is a failed attempt and an oral or written agreement will be entered into with you before any further CPA attempts are made for each missed cost or charge.
If we cannot take a scheduled repayment under the CPAs set out above and we have reason to believe that this is because you are in financial difficulties we will not attempt to use a CPA to take any other instalment payment (or any charge) until we have first tried to contact you. If we cannot communicate with you or if you fail to communicate with us we may recommence using the CPA and it is therefore important that you communicate with us if you are missing payments.
You may cancel the CPA at any time by contacting us at Payl8r, St John House, Barrington Road, Altrincham WA14 1JY or telephoning us on 0161 425 6363. If you do so we shall take your payment by direct debit.
We may impose charges for missed CPA payments. Please see “the consequences of missing payments” section above.
