ASIC, which does not license mortgage brokers but can review advertising under credit laws, found the ads were misleading and deceptive because the recommendations were limited to a panel of about 27 lenders.
The Australian Securities and Investments Commission has also told the brokerage, which has an estimated loan book of more than $16 billion, to place newspaper advertisements in every state
Mortgage Choice, one of Australia's largest mortgage brokers, has been told it may have to review the sale of up to 50,000 mortgages and face compensation claims for making misleading and deceptive claims to customers.
Mr Fexboy you are talking about the prepayment panalty. practice of the prepayment penalty. Since it is very likely that a borrower would like to refinance a high interest loan, a prepayment penalty will most often be included in the loan agreement but the borrower may not be explicitly informed since it is the borrower's responsibility to read their agreement.
