Name: Mark Wilson on Jan 9, 2009Comments: First Plus sell a loan they class as "variable" however it works in a vastly different way to any other variable rate loan out there. This they do not explain fully at point of sale and insist that the fact they say the loan is "variable" is enough for them. The reality is they use BofE rate rises to increase APRs in agreements then deny they fall into their equation when rates come down and rarely reduce them. The reality is that the interest rate cycle would givethem the chance to increase all loans by 3-4% over the term. This is something all the experiences on line point to - people attracted in at 7-8% and ended up at 11-14%. I am happy to petitiion against FP policy having tried to have this conversation with them and had their people try to bluff me with terminology and hiding behind a clause in their contract that borders on unfair.Flag

Name: Chris Rice on Jan 9, 2009Comments: I have had a First Plus loan for several years. When the interest rates were rising, First Plus were quick to increase the variable rate, yet when the BOE base rate comes down they say that they do not use the BOE base rate. I am now paying around £150 a month more. With the BOE rates dropping and the LIBOR i would have expected to see a decrease!! First Plus are loan sharks! They are a horrible company! I would never bank or take an account out with Barclays or anything relating to Barclays ever again! DO THE RIGHT THING BARCLAYS! LOWER THE RATE ON FIRST PLUS LOANS!!Flag

Name: Anonymous on Jan 9, 2009Comments: The interest rates have been consistantly raised in line with increases in the Lending Rate but recent reductions have had absolutely no effect on the rate being demanded on secured loans. Surely this us akin to profiteering in such difficult timesFlag

Name: Neil Tucker on Jan 9, 2009Comments: Rates have been increased consistently with BoE rate increases, but now you tell us your rates are affected by the FHBR, an obscure rate associated with HP and Marine Vessel finance!!! Well the FHBR is now 1% lower than it was when I took out my loan, but my interest rate is 1.6% higher. How on earth can you justify thatFlag

Name: Anonymous on Jan 9, 2009Comments: Barclays First Plus are treating their customers unfairly. Their decision not to decrease their rates is nothing short of scandalous. The FHBR when I took out my loan was 5.00% and First Plus were charging me 7.7%. Now the FHBR has reduced from 5.00% to 4.00% yet barclays First Plus are currently charging me 9.3% !! Completely unfair and an absolute disgrace.Flag

After several reductions in bank of england base rates and FHBR rates not a signle penny of the cut has been passed to customers. All we want is a fair deal for those who placed their trust and property in the hands of this outfit.Flag
