The credit broking services we provide
In assessing your needs and requirements we will need to obtain some information about your personal circumstances and demands. Depending on your response we will make recommendations that are suitable for your individual needs and establish a line of credit. It is always important that you provide us with accurate and relevant information so that we can try and find a product or agreement that is most suitable to you.
The finance products we use
As a Financial Conduct Authority regulated credit broker, we may introduce you to a range of finance providers who may be able to help you finance your vehicle and provide other products/services, such as vehicle maintenance and servicing packages.
We will only offer products from a carefully selected panel of finance providers. We will not refer you outside of this panel without your consent. You can ask us for a list of the suppliers who provide our finance and insurance products. All the products we offer are optional.
We may be paid a commission or other benefits for introducing you to a finance provider/supplier. This amount that is capped at a percentage of the tax list price of the vehicle is generated via a upsell of the rental amount. We may also receive an extra amount annually or quarterly based on how much business we generate for an individual funder and the quality of our services provided.
