Premium Finance. In arranging premium finance, we act as a credit broker to provide you with a premium finance facility which is designed solely for the purposes of facilitating a loan for repayment of insurance premiums. We will only provide you with information about this payment option on a non-advised basis from which you will need to make your own decision as to the suitability of this facility and whether you wish to proceed. Where we arrange premium finance on your behalf, we are remunerated for our assistance in putting this financing in place. We can provide details of our remuneration on request. When arranging premium finance your premium finance provider may undertake an enquiry with credit reference agencies who will add details of the search and the application to their record about you, whether or not the application proceeds. Further details will be provided when an application for finance is made. Insurers own credit facilities may also be available if appropriate. Where you pay your premium by instalments and use a premium finance provider, if any direct debit or other payment due in respect of the credit agreement you enter into to pay insurance premiums is not met when presented for payment or if you end the credit agreement we will be informed of such events by your premium finance provider. If you do not make other arrangements with us or your premium finance provider to pay the insurance premiums you acknowledge and agree that we may, at any time after being so informed, instruct on your behalf the relevant insurer to cancel the insurance (or, if this occurs shortly after the start or renewal of the insurance, to notify the insurer that the policy has not been taken up) and to collect any refund of premiums which may be made by the insurer. If any money is owed to the premium finance provider under your credit agreement or if they have debited us with the amount outstanding, we will use any refund received to offset our costs. You will be responsible for paying any remaining time on risk charge and putting in place any alternative insurance and / or payment agreements you need. You also agree that we may hold to the order of the premium finance provider any claims monies due to you in the event that you are in default of your credit agreement.
Premium Finance. Where you decide to pay by instalments, we act as a credit broker and not as the finance lender and will introduce you to a Premium Finance Provider. Using premium finance makes the overall cost of the insurance more expensive. A full breakdown of the cost of your insurance and the cost of credit will be provided as part of your new business or renewal quotation before you make a decision whether to proceed. We have agreements in place with Creation Consumer Finance Limited (Creation) or Premium Credit. Where the insurer offers a direct facility which is cheaper, you will be given this option. Rates and acceptance may be subject to a credit check. In the event of your failure to meet with the contractual obligations regarding payment, the finance provider could approach the insurer to seek a termination of the insurance contract to recoup their outstanding finance arrears. You will be liable to pay their costs and charges if you do not keep up your repayments and cover is cancelled under your policy. This is because the agreement is between you, the policyholder and the finance company direct, not us or the insurer. It is important that you read the finance agreement that is sent to you before you agree to enter into such an agreement. We do not charge any fees to you for introducing you to a finance lender, however, both Creation Consumer Finance Limited (Creation) and Premium Credit remunerate us in the form of commission for their credit broking arrangements with our clients.
Premium Finance. If the Producer uses a premium finance facility outside those which may be made available through AssuranceAmerica, the Company must first approve the use of the specific finance company. When AssuranceAmerica approves a finance facility, gross premium must always accompany the application or additional premium endorsement. AssuranceAmerica will not accept any check from, nor responsibility for any finance company outside those identified and approved, as evidenced by Xxxxxxxx C executed and attached to this agreement.
