Personal finance news

-An official review has found care homes are applying unfair charges and excessive fees for self-funders. The Competition and Market Authority review discovered some homes applying large upfront costs for self-funders, as well as charging additional fees to families when their relatives had died.

-The stamp duty exemption for first-time buyers introduced in the Budget last week will have a “limited impact” on demand for housing. This is according to lender Nationwide, following the Budget measure to remove stamp duty for first-time buyers on purchases up to £300,000 in England, Northern Ireland and, temporarily, in Wales.

-Commons Treasury Committee chairman Nicky Morgan has said there must be an even spread of free-to-use cash machines across the UK. Writing to the Link network during a debate about a suggested overhaul to the cash machine system, Morgan said any big fall in the number of ATMs would “clearly be of concern”.

-Fraudsters have been posing as police officers in a scam designed to convince victims they are helping with an undercover investigation. UK Finance has reported that victims of the scam are losing large sums of money.

-Consumers are struggling to break free of unwanted subscriptions including gym memberships and online streaming services. The analysis by Citizens Advice found consumers paid an average of £160 on unwanted services in a period of three months.
