A slice of the £7.5 billion may have your name on it

Millions of customers who purchased cars on finance between April 2007 to November 2024 don’t realise they may have been overcharged. With The Finance Claim, you can check if you could qualify for compensation in about 60 seconds.

Inflated Interest Rates

Before the regulator banned discretionary commission arrangements, lenders could raise your car-finance interest rate to earn extra commission. This practice was prohibited in January 2021 following an investigation.

Unfair Agreements

In August 2025, a major Supreme Court case held that some car-finance agreements could be unfair even where the lender didn’t adjust the interest rate. This is likely to apply where excessive commissions were charged or where car dealers were paid by certain lenders to arrange finance through them.

It's Official

The FCA has announced details of a compensation scheme set to return £7.5 billion to 12.1 million drivers - with payments starting this year. Consumers with eligible agreements who complain before the implementation period ends will be paid faster than those who wait to take action.
