Zero-credit is a co-operative of individuals with personal experience of debt. From November they will trade in information which can help to develop and regulate consumer finance. The aim is to end the stigma which pushes debtors into unsuitable products and services and to start a responsible dialogue with government and the finance sector.
Individual membership costs £1 a year, whilst group subscriptions will be available from £10 to £30. Profits are to be split between sustaining the business and donations to charity.
Founder Emma Bryn-Jones says;
The cost of social and financial exclusion is far greater than anything we offer, so why not check out our Terms for further information, then fill out an application?
Membership is open to any UK resident aged sixteen years or over with personal experience of debt. All we ask is that you do not represent a company, government or not-for-profit body and that, with the exception of information published on the creditfree areas of Zero-credit’s website, you do not promote any goods or services requiring a consumer credit license to other members.
Details of Zero-credit’s Membership & Subscription Terms and Articles of Association provide more information about how they operate.
