Important Notice:

All regulated agreements must have a Pre-Contract information agreement issued before the customer signs the main agreement; these are listed with the same code as the main regulated agreement but preceded with PCI.

Section 55 Consumer Credit Act 1974

Disclosure of information

(1) Regulations may require specified information to be disclosed in the prescribed manner to the debtor or hirer before a regulated agreement is made.
(2) A regulated agreement is not properly executed unless regulations under subsection (1) were complied with before the making of the agreement.

General effect

The Consumer Credit (Disclosure of Information) Regulations 2004 ('the Pre-contract Information Regulations’) require lenders or owners to disclose specified information to the debtor or hirer before an agreement is made. This pre-contract information mimics that found at the start of the credit or hire agreement. This pre-contract information allows the consumer to have a summary of the key features so that he may compare products and select the most appropriate.
The pre-contract information must meet various legibility, and equal prominence, requirements and must be contained in a agreement which allows the debtor or hirer to remove it from the place at which it was disclosed to him. Any agreement containing such information must be separate from an agreement agreement, and must be headed with the words 'Pre-contract Information’. In addition, it must contain one of the headings prescribed by the Agreements Regulations, but with the words 'Pre-contract Information’ appearing first and more prominently. The lender or owner may decide upon the order in which he displays the information.

A regulated agreement is not properly executed (unenforceable without a court order) unless regulations under subsection (1) were complied with before the making of the agreement.
