Student loan promotion in England and Wales amounted to mis-selling, MPs say

Tuesday 7th July 2026

Treasury select committee also says ministers have moral obligation to reverse last year’s repayment threshold freeze

Slideshows that compared student loan repayments with the cost of a mobile phone contract, and YouTube videos that did not mention the fact that loan terms could change amounted to mis-selling by the government, MPs have said.

The chancellor, Rachel Reeves, caused a furore last year when she announced that the repayment threshold on plan 2 student loans would be frozen at £29,385 for three years from April 2027.
