Track record

Action taken against them

1 fine in 2022, £811,900 in total. This is part of the official register record and is worth reviewing before going ahead.

  • Fined £811,900 on 10 June 2022
    “On 10 June 2022, the FCA imposed a financial penalty on TFS Loans Limited. The reason for this action is because TFS Loans Limited breaches Principles 6 and 3 and CONC 5.2.5R, 5.3.2R and 7.3R between 2 November 2015 and 10 April 2018 by failing to consider sufficient information to enable it to carry out effective creditworthiness assessments of individuals acting as guarantors of loans which it issued, and by overcharging customers in arrears an ‘arrears management fee’ in contravention of its own policies. As a consequence of this action, the FCA imposed a penalty of £811,900. TFS has agreed to a requirement under section 55 of the Act to conduct an appropriate redress programme to ensure that customers affected by its failure to carry out effective creditworthiness assessments of guarantors are not disadvantaged. TFS has already provided redress to customers who were overcharged the arrears management fee. The FCA’s action took effect on 10 June 2022 and a copy of the Final Notice is displayed on the FCA's web site.
