• Interest is Compounded
• Comparison Rate is not NZ Rate of Charge or could be calculated, or too high
• Maximum Cost of Borrowing exceeded
• Default Fee limit exceeded (if Account Type limits)
• Database totals do not match Transactions
• More than 2 High-Cost Loans in last 90 days, or any future dated
• Related Consumer Credit Contract found, meaning the First Advance will be inaccurate
