What Is an Irresponsible Lending Refund Claim?

An irresponsible lending refund claim is a complaint made when a lender approved credit without properly checking whether you could afford the repayments.

Lenders are expected to assess affordability, review your financial situation, and ensure the borrowing is suitable before offering loans, credit cards, car finance, payday loans, catalogues, overdrafts, or other credit products.

If the lender failed to carry out proper checks, ignored signs of financial difficulty, or approved borrowing that made your situation worse, you may be entitled to compensation.

Reasons you may qualify for an irresponsible lending refund

Common Reasons You May Be Eligible

You may qualify if:

  • You were given a loan, credit card, overdraft, catalogue account, payday loan, or finance agreement you could not afford.
  • The lender failed to check your income, outgoings, debts, or financial commitments properly.
  • You had to borrow more money to keep up with repayments.
  • You were repeatedly offered top-ups, credit limit increases, or new loans despite financial difficulty.
  • The repayments caused missed bills, arrears, defaults, or further debt problems.

This claim helps you review whether the lender acted fairly and whether you may be owed a refund of interest, fees, charges, or additional compensation.

Many people were approved for unaffordable borrowing without realising the lender may have acted irresponsibly — we help you check eligibility and claim back money you may be entitled to.
