“linked credit agreement” means a regulated consumer credit agreement which—
serves exclusively to finance an agreement for the supply of specific goods or the provision of a specific service or land, and
where the supplier or service provider himself finances the credit for the debtor, or if it is financed by a third party, where the creditor uses the services of the supplier or service provider in connection with the preparation or making of the credit agreement, or
where the specific goods or land or the provision of a specific service are explicitly specified in the credit agreement;
“pawn agreement” means a consumer credit agreement under which the creditor takes an article in pawn;
“pre-contract credit information” means the information specified in regulation 3(4);
“total amount of credit” means the credit limit or the total sums made available under a consumer credit agreement;

[F5“the total charge for credit rules” means rules made by the Financial Conduct Authority under article 60M of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Regulated Activities) Order 2001 for the purposes of Chapter 14A of Part 2 of that Order;]
(3) In these Regulations, a reference to a repayment is a reference to—

(b)a payment of the whole or any part of the total charge for credit, or
(c)a combination of such repayments and payments.
(4) In these Regulations, a reference to rate of interest is a reference to the interest rate expressed as a fixed or variable percentage applied on an annual basis to the amount of credit drawn down.
(5) In these Regulations, a reference to an agreement includes a reference to a prospective agreement.
(6) For the purposes of the definition of “excluded pawn agreement” and regulation 8 the debtor is a new customer if the debtor has not entered into a pawn agreement with the creditor in the three years preceding the start of the negotiations antecedent to the agreement.
