Freedom of Information: Right to know request:

I am requesting information on the number of consumer credit products, in particular high-cost short term credit, specifically Payday loans, that have been bought over the past three years, up to April of this year, if possible. If it is viable, this information would ideally be formatted by financial quarter.

I would also like to receive information on the number of defaults in the same time period if the above task is possible to complete in the requisite 18 working hours.
