We're crunching the numbers for you
We're searching for your best offers…
We're asking you to provide read-only access to your digital bank statements to give you more accurate loan options. Most lenders will need you to supply these before they make their final decision but by adding them now, we can try to get you loan options that would otherwise be out of reach.
Please connect to the bank account your income is paid into, and any other accounts that you regularly use for spending. This will give you the best chance of improving your options.
If you can’t find your bank, this means that your bank doesn't have Open Banking enabled. Please try adding a different account from another bank. If you don’t have another account, unfortunately this means that you can't complete your finance search with us.
Yes, Open Banking is an industry standard FCA regulated technology. It is a safe and secure way for you to share a read-only view of your bank statements digitally. We won't be able to access your money in any way.

We offer a range of unsecured personal loans from a large panel of lenders so you can make an informed choice.
We offer full advice & recommendation on a range of second charge mortgages from a panel of lenders (a list of the Lenders we have access to is available on request). This means we will:
For unsecured loans, we do not charge a fee for referral to a lender. Our income is derived from commissions paid by the lenders and other third parties we deal with for any successful introduction we make.
For second charge mortgages we may charge a fee, actual fees and charges will be explained by the adviser prior to application & submission to a lender. We may also receive commission paid by the Lenders.
There may be additional costs relating to the mortgage we recommend to you and these will be detailed in the Mortgage illustration which we will send to you. A list of commission rates payable by the lenders is available on request.
In order to process your application, we may search the files of licensed credit agencies, who will keep a record of the search, to confirm your particulars and for the purpose of a credit assessment. A record can be kept of such searches which may be used by other lenders in assessing future applications for finance by you and for fraud prevention. These organisations may use this information in the future to help make credit decisions, prevent financial crime and to trace debtors.
Information held about applicants by CRA's may already be linked to records related to one or more of your partners or members of your household. For the purpose of this application you may be treated as financially linked and the application may be assessed with reference to any ‘associated’ records.
We may also, as part of the application request a Lenders Decision in Principle. This would involve the Lender conducting either a soft or hard credit search on all applicants, which may leave a mark on your credit files and can have a negative impact on your overall credit scores.
It is important that the information you provide is both accurate and honest, and a true reflection of your circumstances. It is your responsibility to provide information in this way to a provider or organisation that provides products and services recommended for you. Failure to disclose relevant information, or change of circumstances, to a provider or Lender may result in your product being invalidated.
If false or inaccurate information is provided, or if a reasonable suspicion of fraud or any other criminal offence is identified, details will be shared with fraud prevention agencies, law enforcement agencies and regulatory bodies who may access and use this information. We and other organisations may access and use the information recorded by fraud prevention agencies to prevent fraud and money laundering, for example, when:
All transactions relating to our services provided are covered by, and adhere to, the Money Laundering regulations and Proceeds of Crime Act. Our responsibilities include, but are not limited to, verifying the identity and address of our customers. Identity verification checks may include electronic searches through the Electronic Identification Verification Service, electoral roll and use of credit reference agencies.
We may also require proof of your income and expenditure to satisfy these requirements.
Under data protection laws we are permitted to share some information where the reason for doing so is legitimate and isn’t outweighed by the effects it will have on the relevant individuals. On that basis we may pass your data to TransUnion (https://www.callcredit.co.uk/legal-information/bureau-privacy-notice) who may combine it with data from other sources, analyse and profile it (such as by predicting information about you), and pass their knowledge on to other companies to help trace you to provide important information or return assets to you. Your data may also be used in a similar manner to aid debt recovery and to prevent fraud by helping to identify you (for instance when you are applying for new products).
TransUnion may also provide your data to other organisations to support the assessment of credit risk, pricing and affordable payments. If you do not wish for your data to be used this way by TransUnion then please contact us at compliancehelpdesk@freedom-finance.com.
Freedom Finance Ltd takes every care to ensure the accuracy of the loan quotes which are based on the latest information available from the lenders at that time. However, the lenders on the panel reserve the right to change % APR or % APRC rates and underwriting criteria at any time and without notice. This may result in a change to the loan/secured loan offered to you or may result in the loan/secured loans offer being withdrawn.
The accuracy of the loan/secured loan quotes depends upon the accuracy of the information you have provided. Freedom Finance Ltd and the lenders on the panel will conduct checks to verify the accuracy of the information you have provided. If information you have provided changes as a result of these checks, the original offer may be changed or withdraw.
The expected time periods from submitting your application to receiving your loan/secured loan funds are only a guide. Any delay in the returning of your loan documents, proof of income or identification and/or delays with any third party we or the lender need to contact in order to process your application, may result in your application taking longer to complete.
If you're thinking of consolidating existing borrowing you should be aware that although you may reduce your monthly outgoings you may be extending the terms of the debt and increasing the total amount you repay.
It's important that you can afford the repayments now and continue to do so throughout the term of the loan as failure to keep up with your repayments could lead to defaults, CCJ's, ultimately bankruptcy and affect your ability to obtain future credit.
