Following the coronavirus outbreak, we are monitoring the situation closely and adhering to guidance set out by the UK Government and Public Health England.
We have a robust operational resiliency program in place, which is regularly tested and covers all our teams and offices. We are well prepared to maintain our services in adverse circumstances and continue to operate as normal. Communication is clearly key and as the situation evolves, we will provide further updates should circumstances change.
At Premium Credit, we are committed to supporting all our customers, not least those experiencing difficulties as a result of the current situation. We recognise that each customer will have individual needs and challenges, and if you think you'll struggle to make your monthly repayments because of coronavirus, please firstly contact your insurance broker or provider who can review your current level of cover which may help reduce any future monthly repayments and ease your payment difficulties.
Additionally, your insurance broker or provider will be able to discuss the options for further support, which may include a payment deferral of between 1 and 3 months where this is in your best interests. You may also contact us directly for support and assistance.
Is a Payment Deferral right for me?
Please don’t cancel your Direct Debit as this is needed to maintain your credit agreement, and without it we are unable to apply the repayment deferral and you risk falling into arrears.
If you find that you are unlikely to be able to resume repayments at the end of your deferral period, please contact your insurance broker or provider BEFORE your next rescheduled payment to see if there is anything further they can do. If you need additional assistance from us, please get in touch. We are here to help.
At Premium Credit we will always strive to provide whatever support we can to assist customers through this challenging period. As always, every customer case will be considered on its own merit and we encourage those with concerns to get in touch with either their insurance broker, provider or us as early as possible.
