Consumer minister Gareth Thomas confirmed yesterday that a payment date for the victims of Swindon-based Farepak savings club collapse had yet to have been set.

In a ministerial statement, Thomas said creditors, including customers, were expected to get about 5p in every pound returned.

‘It is not yet possible to confirm when a payment will be made to customers, as every agent and customer claim must be finalised before this can take place,’ he said. ‘All claims for money must first be verified and checked to ensure they are not duplicated by agents and customers.’

Some 150,000 families lost about £40m in savings when the firm went into administration in October 2006.
