Le Vell, who plays Kevin Webster in the TV soap, is taking a new role as a board director of financial claims management specialist Ratio Money.
Ratio Money helps consumers who are burdened with mis-sold payment protection insurance (PPI), excessive bank charges, unfair credit agreements and mortgage offers that have not complied with the law. The company provides manual audits of clients’ credit agreements and, when it finds these agreements are in breach of the Consumer Credit Act, it will seek to have the outstanding debt written off.
“Consumers have been ripped off and exploited by financial organisations for many years,” said Le Vell. “I’m delighted to be involved with Ratio Money. It gives support to hardworking people when banks and other financial bodies make unreasonable demands and threats.
Ratio Money’s fees to support consumers with unfair credit agreements are transparent and fixed. It costs £295 for the first credit agreement and £195 thereafter – and all but £50 of each is refundable if the agreement is indeed valid.
