Customer Loan Book legal assignment process
On 8 March 2024, the Joint Administrators legally transferred part of the Shelby Finance book of outstanding customer loans to Lantern.

Lantern is now responsible for the managing of credit files for the loans that they have taken legal assignment of.
The remaining loan book that was not legally assigned to Lantern has been written off in full and no further payments are required to Morses Club against these loans with effect from 7 March 2024. You should have received an email or letter from Shelby Finance advising you of such. Your Credit Reference Agency records will be updated within 56 days to reflect your loan being written off.
