    As far as I'm aware, it makes it incumbent on the provider of the credit to outline exactly what it is you are signing up for.
    We keep getting letters from Oxendales about this and what they sent us is a document which specifically outlines exactly what our credit terms are and how we are expected to pay them, with all extra charges outlined in seperate sections.

    It also has a big 'THIS IS A HIGH COST LOAN' box so that you know you're selling your soul.

    I think thats about all it does for us.
