Platform launches online pre-sales KFI

The lender's pre-sale KFI is accessible via the Platform website - www.platformhomeloans.com - which has recently been revamped with improved navigation, clearer graphics and downloadable literature aimed specifically at intermediaries, making it a much more user friendly site for visitors.

In order to give intermediaries a helping hand, Platform has pre-registered over 3000 users, all of which will be receiving pre-registration details in the post with their user login and password, giving them immediate connection to the lender's pre-sale KFI facility. Those who are not pre-registered can visit Platform's website and follow a number of steps to register for the service.

Intermediaries using the new online service will find that completion of the pre-sale KFI takes only 5 minutes, and is produced as a printable pdf document. There is also a dedicated Platform Support Team, should users experience any unlikely difficulties, who can be contacted on 0845 600 7100. Intermediaries can also contact this support team, if they do not have

access to the internet or a sourcing system, as a 'faxback' KFI facility is available.

Guy Batchelor, Sales & Marketing Director of Platform comments; "We fully support the intermediary market and, as a business, we have invested a significant amount of time, effort and finances in our IT systems in order for us to deliver a comprehensive online service for

intermediaries. Our pre-sale KFI is just the first in a range of online facilities that we're planning to launch over the next twelve months.

"Intermediaries will be able to take advantage of these dedicated services, giving them a helping hand to smooth the way in the regulated world."
