The FCA (Financial Conduct Authority) has confirmed further support for customers in receipt of high cost credit and motor finance.

The recommendation is to pay if you are in a position to, however for those struggling:

  • Firms will be asked to freeze or reduce payments for a further 3 months, upon being asked to by the customer.
  • Pawnbrokers will be asked to extend the redemption period, assuming it has not already lapsed and also be asked not to sell on items within this period.
  • The ban on repossessions will continue until 31st October 2020.
  • These support schemes should not affect customer credit

Retail sales BOUNCE back to almost pre-corona levels

Non-food retail sectors are finally showing pre-corona sales levels, with the Office for National Statistics estimating a near 14% increase in Juny 2020! After record declines in March and April, there has been a promising two months of strong growth. Unsurprisingly, the online growth of retail has been far higher. Online grocery sales are up by 5.3% compared to the beginning of the pandemic, and non grocery sales are up by 53.6%. Although this news is extremely positive, over all retail sales have fallen 15% on pre-pandemic levels. Still, the only way is up! Retail is on the up!
