Information on the Site

Content on the Site, including guides, blog articles and calculators, is general information only. It is not financial, legal, tax or accounting advice and should not be relied on as such. Calculator results are illustrative estimates. You should take independent professional advice before making financial decisions.

Nothing on the Site is an offer of finance. All finance is subject to status, affordability and our assessment, and we may decline any application. Terms and conditions apply.

Our liability

Nothing in these terms limits or excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot be limited or excluded under English law.
