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

Faqs

A PCP finance claim allows you to seek compensation if your PCP car finance agreement was mis-sold.

If you purchased a car, van, or motorbike on PCP or HP finance before January 2021, you may have been mis-sold. Many drivers were unknowingly charged higher interest rates, or had undisclosed commissions added to their agreements, costing them more than necessary.

Common reasons for PCP finance claims include:

  • High-interest rates set by dealers to increase their commission.
  • Undisclosed commissions that were not explained to you.
  • Lack of affordability checks to ensure you could afford repayments.

If your agreement was mis-sold, you could be entitled to a car finance refund or compensation. Use our car finance checker to find out if you qualify.

To make a PCP car finance claim or other car finance claims, you must prove your agreement was mis-sold or breached regulations. Key criteria include:

  • Misrepresentation of terms: Dealers misled you about costs, interest rates, or failed to explain the agreement.
  • Undisclosed commission: A commission was paid to the dealer without your knowledge, affecting your deal.
  • Lack of affordability checks: The lender failed to check if you could afford the repayments.

Use our car finance claim calculator or car finance checker to determine your eligibility.

You might have been mis-sold if:

  • Interest rates were inflated to maximise dealer commissions.
  • You weren’t told about the dealer’s commission incentive.
  • Terms of your car finance agreement were unclear.
