Dear Mr & Mrs
Why we are writing to you
We have recently concluded a review of your account and have found that your monthly instalments have not always changed when the interest rate on your account changed.
Since opening your account, interest rates have fluctuated. The interest rate applied to your account is currently 13.478%,and is linked to GE Money’s base lending rate.
As your monthly instalment has not always changed to reflect the fluctuation in GE Money’s base lending rate,you have not been paying enough to make sure your loan is repaid within your agreed term.
What we have done to help you repay your loan within theagreed term
We have calculated that the total amount underpaid onyour account as of 8th May 2012 as a result of this matter is£2,035.47-and we have reduced your account balance by this amount as a gestureof goodwill.You will see this transaction reflected on your next annualstatement.
Any fees and charges that may have been applied to youraccount during the term are not affected by this issue.
Your notice of payment change
We have adjusted your monthly instalment to reflect thecurrent rate on your account.

Please note your monthly instalment will change inaccordance with future fluctuations to GEMoney’s base lending rate.At thatpoint in time you will receive a Notice of Payment Change advising you of yournew monthly instalment and the effective date.
