Undisiclosed commissions

Brokers/Dealerships we're legally obliged to disclose the commission they earnt from the sale of finance in a clear and conscise manner

Limited options

Brokers/Dealerships often co-erced clients into signing into agreements that were most financially attractive to them as opposed to providing clients with clear options

No outline

Clients weren’t advised of the options available to them and we're often swayed to the product most financially beneficial to the dealer/broker

FCAs findings on mis-sold car finance in March 2019

Yellow Bullet

Customers are paying significantly more for their motor finance because of the way lenders choose to remunerate their brokers/Dealers

Yellow Bullet

We found that these incentives have significant effects on the cost of motor finance for consumers

Yellow Bullet

We have particular concerns in relation to disclosure of commission

Yellow Bullet

Out of 90% of the retailers mystery shopped by the FCA, only 11 told their customers that the dealership might receive commission for arranging the deal

Frequently asked questions

To make a PCP (Personal Contract Purchase) claim, you must show that the agreement was mis-sold or breached regulations. Key criteria include:

  • Misrepresentation of Terms: The dealer misled you about costs, interest rates, or failed to explain the agreement clearly.
  • Undisclosed Commission: A commission was received by the dealer without your knowledge, affecting the deal offered.
  • Lack of Affordability Checks: The finance provider didn't properly assess whether you could afford the repayments.
Interest rates we're at the discretion of the dealer/broker, meaning the higher the interest rate charged the higher the commission the dealer/broker received, clients were also not made aware of the commission incentive that they we're receiving for this
Compensation depends on factors like the interest rate, loan amount, and how long you've been repaying the loan. We've seen some claims worth up to £5,492.10 with Black Horse, £4,478.46 with MotoNovo, and £2,449.65 with Close Brothers. The average claim value is expected to be around £1,600.
In 2019 the FCA were concerned that about the way commission arrangements were operating in motor finance and that is has lead to harm on a significant scale
This is dependant on the lender, some of our claims can settle in as little as a couple of month some can take over a year, it is best to get your claim submitted sooner rather than later.
Where the service is offered at No win no Fee this means that a customer will typically pay 30% + VAT 36% including VAT of any amount recovered by a panel solicitor although this will be subject to your individual circumstances and the actual fee may be less than this, but it will never be more. A cancellation fee may be charged by a third party/panel solicitor if you cancel outside the cooling off period.
