Think commission may have affected your car finance? Start with a free check.
If you used PCP, Hire Purchase or another type of motor finance, questions about commission, lender choice or how the agreement was arranged may be relevant. Start with the agreement details you remember — you do not need every document to get started.
Was the finance arranged through a motor dealer or broker?
Do you remember being told the dealer or broker would receive commission?
Were you told the dealer had searched for the best finance or that this was the only suitable lender?
Have you already complained to the lender about this agreement?
If you complained, have you received a response?
Has the lender contacted you about motor-finance redress?
After you send it
What happens next?
The claims firm named at the final step can review your enquiry and contact you if it needs anything else.
01
Your enquiry is recorded
We keep a record of the details you send and the consent you give.
02
The claims firm can take a first look
If it needs more information, it can contact you using the details you provided.
03
You decide what happens next
If the claims firm can help, it will explain what it can do and any fees before you choose whether to go ahead.
Your other options
You can complain without using a claims management company.
Depending on the issue, you may be able to complain directly to the business and use the Financial Ombudsman Service or Financial Services Compensation Scheme yourself for free.
No. Start with what you remember. If you know the lender, agreement date or finance type, include it, but missing paperwork does not stop you sending the check.
Does the FCA scheme cover every car-finance agreement?
No. The scheme has eligibility rules and exceptions. Personal Contract Hire (PCH), for example, is not included. The check does not tell you that compensation is due; the circumstances still need to be reviewed.
Can I complain to the lender myself?
Yes. You do not have to use a claims management company. You can complain directly to the lender for free and, where relevant, use the Financial Ombudsman Service without paying a claims-management fee.
What if I have already sent a complaint?
Tell us in the form. A previous complaint or lender response can affect the next step, so it is useful for the claims firm to know.
Does submitting this form join me to the FCA scheme?
No. MFCC sends your enquiry to the claims firm named on the form. It does not itself register you into the FCA scheme or guarantee that an agreement is eligible.
