What is your complaint about?
-
Motor finance is an important way in which we help our customers with their financial needs and support the wider UK economy.
If you’ve used motor finance to buy a car, motorbike or van we may have paid the broker (usually your car dealer) commission for arranging the finance.
The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) have given lenders until after 4 December 2025 before they start responding to certain complaints involving motor commission.
You can find more information on the FCA’s website.
