show moreThe BBC has received more than 1,000 complaints about Yes Loans Ltd of Cwmbran, south Wales, since 2004.
The OFT will not say why it is now "minded to revoke" its licence. An independent OFT adjudicator will make the final decision, which is subject to appeal.
The company says it is committed to responding to the OFT's concerns and that the vast majority of its customers are happy with its service.
Plus, a new report says football clubs could be open to fraud and mis-management; Adrian hears more debate on public and private cord blood banks; and why a second-class stamp could sometimes be your first-class option.
