Hire purchase, or lease purchase, is available to corporate businesses only or for non corporate bodies where the balance to be financed exceeds £25,000 (i.e. customers who are not regulated by Consumer Credit Act).
Hire purchase provides the customer with similar cash flow benefits to lease rental, but all the VAT on the cost of the system is payable with the initial payment. The customer would obtain tax relief on the interest element of each payment and on capital allowances on the equipment, rather than on each rental payment they make.
Just thought I would write you a few lines to thank you for your recent service with the procurement of our latest assets. The service was quick, and efficient as always, and Hannah was totally on the ball. Great service.
