Payment Plans

Payments will be attempted on the dates agreed, any failed payments will be re-attempted 24 hours later with a minimum of 3 attempts up to a total of 5 times. Communication via email will be sent for each failed payment to notify you. If payment continues to fail then your payment plan will be placed into default.
It is important that you make at least the minimum payment when it is due. Failure to make the minimum payment may result in additional fees and interest being charged as outlined below. As a consequence the total cost of your debt may grow. If you don’t make your payments on time, we are entitled to record any defaults that you make at credit reference agencies.
When defaulting on your payment plan you will be given 7 days to bring your account payments up to date. Failure to do so will result in your case being passed across to a debt collection agency with further costs being added at this time. If you have begun the impression process but not completed you will be liable to pay 50% of the order total (plus additional fees).
Additional Fees:
Late Payment: $15 per failed payment
