What we’ll do with your complaint >
For Complaints relating to commission for car finance loans
On 11th January 2024 the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) who regulate Financial Services firms introduced a pause to the complaints process for discretionary commission arrangement (DCA) complaints. The FCA are examining the issues around these complaints to make sure that, if you’re owed compensation, you get it in the best way possible.
The FCA have paused the complaints process for 37 weeks, which means that firms do not have to provide a final response to a complaint of this nature until 25 September 2024, at the earliest. We can assure you that we will still investigate your complaint immediately however we will not provide you with a final response until the FCA publish the results of their investigation.
If you would like more information about what a DCA complaint is or any further information about this please visit the FCAs website – https://www.fca.org.uk/consumers/car-finance-complaints
