Cork couple claim that Pepper’s imposition of a higher interest rate than that charged by original loan lender is unlawful

Darren Hennessy and Emer Barrett, of Togher, County Cork, said the interest rates on loans they initially received from PTSB have risen to 8.5 per cent, which they said amounted to a difference of €7,400 a year in payments.
