This guide from Your Lawyers explains what is happening and how to take action with the right PCP car finance legal advice.
Car finance agreements have helped millions of people across the UK get behind the wheel, but recent scrutiny has revealed that many customers may have been unfairly treated. If you have ever taken out a Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) agreement, you could be owed compensation due to undisclosed commissions or unclear terms.
One of the biggest issues affecting UK drivers is the use of discretionary commission arrangements. In some cases, lenders allowed car dealers to adjust interest rates, increasing the amount customers paid—without clearly explaining that the dealer was earning a commission based on that rate.
This lack of transparency may have resulted in customers paying significantly more than necessary over the term of their agreement. If you were not informed about how your interest rate was set, or that a commission was involved, your agreement may have been mis-sold.
You may be entitled to compensation if your PCP agreement lacked clarity or transparency. Common signs of mis-sold finance include:
Even if your agreement was signed years ago, you may still be able to pursue a claim for compensation. Regulatory bodies in the UK have been investigating these practices, and many consumers are now coming forward for help.
