Financial difficulties

Excess mileage
Some of our agreements include terms about how many miles you can drive each year, and charges if you drive more miles than we agreed. Read more about what this means for your vehicle finance agreement here.
Understanding formal documents
If you’ve been sent a legal notice, you may see technical terms that are unfamiliar to you. Our glossary describes some of the terms we commonly use in our legal notices, to help you understand your situation.
Fair wear and tear standards
If you have a PCP agreement, at the end of your agreement you have an option to return the vehicle or motorcycle to us. If you decide to do this, we’ll ask a third party company to inspect and collect it on our behalf. For more information on what the inspect and collect company looks for and what we class as fair wear and tear, click below to download our guides.
Good customer outcomes
As a responsible lender we can demonstrate that we act to deliver good outcomes for customers in accordance with the FCA’s Consumer Duty regulation. This is relevant across all areas of our business, but specifically in the governance of our products and services, their price and value, consumer understanding and consumer support. We're also a member of the Finance and Leasing Association (FLA) and follow the FLA Lending Code. This code sets out standards of good practice for the finance industry and gives you reassurance that you’re dealing with a reputable organisation.
