Initial Disclosure Document

The Financial Conduct Authority
The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is the independent watchdog that regulates financial services. Use this information to decide if our services are right for you.

Treating Customers Fairly
Our business is committed to treating our customers fairly and ensuring our products and services are suitable for their needs. Treating Customers Fairly (TCF) is a core part of our culture and philosophy and you can review our commitment to it by asking for a copy of our TCF policy statement.

What Products do we Offer?
We are a credit broker not a lender. We can introduce you to a limited number of finance providers who may be able to assist you with your requirements. We will only introduce you to these finance providers.

Other Finance Facilities
You may be able to obtain funding for your purchase from other providers and you are encouraged to seek alternative quotations and details of their products by researching on the high street, in the media and online.

What will you have to Pay to us for this Service?
You will not make any payment to us for processing a finance application or for introducing you to a finance provider. All charges that you will pay including, interest, documentation fees or rentals, where applicable, will be clearly shown on the finance agreement.



Commission Disclosure
We may receive a commission payment from the finance or hire provider if you decide to enter into an agreement with them.

The nature of this commission is as follows: either we receive a fixed fee commission per finance agreement, or we receive a commission based on a percentage of the total amount of finance taken by the customer. This will not affect the interest rate offered or the total amount repayable. Our service is completely free to our customers.

You can request for us to disclose the amount of any commission received.

Understanding our Products and Documents
If you have any health issues, difficulty in understanding information or there are any recent life events that could affect your ability to fully understand the information and documentation you are presented with or what your commitments are under the agreement, you should carefully consider the amount of time you require to review the documentation. You should also consider if it is advisable for you to have someone you know, help you make your decision. Please advise us accordingly if this is the case and we can then proceed with your requirements in the most appropriate way.
You should make sure you have sufficient time to assess the information given to ensure the funding option offered is suitable for you and meets your requirements. You should seek further explanations and ask questions if needed to fully understand the documents you are given.

Affordability
You should assess the monthly payments you are required to make throughout the agreement and ensure you are able to meet these obligations and other obligations you already have without suffering undue hardship. If you are aware of any future events that will affect your ability to meet these payments, you should ensure the provider is informed immediately.
Your credit rating could be adversely affected if you do not make payments when due which could make it harder or more expensive for you to access finance facilities in the future.

Appendix: Finance Providers & Products Offered
The finance providers we predominantly work with are:

TBC
The finance products we offer are:

Hire Purchase (HP)
Ownership options
You have an option to own the vehicle at the end of the agreement.

You are the registered keeper, but the finance company remains the owner until the finance is paid in full.

In some circumstances, if you have problems with the vehicle, you may be able to refer these issues to the finance company.

Restrictions/potential extra costs
There are usually no mileage restrictions though you will need to check your agreement. Excess mileage charges will not apply. You cannot sell the vehicle until the finance has been paid off in full. You will need to service and insure the vehicle in line with the terms of the agreement.

Payment and equity
Flexible terms may allow you to finance the vehicle over a longer period than leasing and PCP. By increasing your deposit, you will lower the monthly payment. As the amount borrowed is paid off in equal instalments during the term of the agreement, it is more likely you will have a higher amount of equity than a PCP agreement for the same term. However, if you decide to sell the vehicle before the end of the agreement, you will have to pay the agreement in full (less an interest rebate) which will reduce the amount of equity you have in the vehicle and particularly in the early stages of the agreement could mean the vehicle is worth less than the amount of finance outstanding.
