How to Claim Mis-Sold Car Finance with Treadstone Law
If you purchased a car, van, or motorbike on PCP or Hire Purchase between 2004-2020, you could be entitled to thousands in repayments due to unfair car finance commissions.
The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has launched a major investigation into hidden commissions, which could lead to billions being refunded to affected customers.
Types of Agreements Eligible for Claims
- Hire Purchase (HP) Agreements
- Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) Agreements
- Car Loans or Motor Finance Arranged Through Brokers or Dealerships
What is Car Finance Mis-selling?
Mis-selling occurs when crucial financial details were not disclosed to you, leading to unfair agreements. You may be eligible if:
-
You were not informed about commission payments to the dealer or broker.
-
Hidden fees or high interest rates were added to your finance agreement without your knowledge.
The FCA has revealed that 95% of UK car finance agreements included hidden commissions. If you weren’t informed about these charges, you may have a strong case.
Did You Take Out PCP/HP Finance Between 2007-2021?
If so, you could be due thousands in compensation!
- 40% of finance deals between 2007 and 2021 included secret commissions, meaning you may have overpaid.
- Potential Average Compensation: £4,000

- Over £300M annually in overpaid commissions in the UK

FAQs
Can I Claim Mis-Sold Car Finance Myself?
Yes, you can file a claim for mis-sold car finance yourself. However, the process can be complex and time-consuming, especially when dealing with discretionary commission arrangements. Here’s a simplified guide to help you get started:
- Gather Information: Collect all your car finance documents, including the agreement and any correspondence with the lender or broker.
- Identify the Lender: Use a clause in the Data Protection Act to request information from the lender about your finance agreement.
- File a Complaint: Write to your lender explaining why you believe the commission was unfairly applied. Be clear and concise, providing all necessary evidence.
While it’s possible to manage this on your own, having expert legal assistance can significantly improve your chances of success and ensure the process is handled correctly.
Should I Use a Claims Management Company (CMC) or a Solicitor?
When deciding whether to use a CMC or a solicitor, consider the following:
Using a CMC
- Advantages: CMCs can handle the paperwork and communication with lenders on your behalf.
- Disadvantages: They typically charge a fee or take a percentage of any compensation you receive, which can reduce your overall payout.
Using a Solicitor
- Advantages: Solicitors, like those at Treadstone Law, provide expert legal advice and can leverage unique legal clauses to strengthen your case. We have a thorough understanding of the FCA regulations and can handle complex claims more effectively.
- Disadvantages: Legal fees may apply, but these are often outweighed by the increased likelihood of a successful and higher-value claim.
