Discretionary Commission Arrangements (DCA’s)

If your complaint is regarding Discretionary Commission Arrangements (DCAs), the Financial Conduct Authority have introduced temporary complaint-handling rules relating to Discretionary Commission Arrangements, if:

You bought a car/vehicle using car finance before 28 January 2021
the lender/dealer/broker (acting as credit broker) had a discretionary commission arrangement, and
If you made a complaint to the lender/dealer/broker between 17 November 2023 and 25 September 2024, or
You received a final response to your complaint from the business between 12 July 2023 and 20 November 2024.

The FCA have paused the requirement on firms to provide a final response within 8 weeks of receiving the complaint. You can still complain to us however we may not send you a final response until after 25 September 2024, at the earliest.

For new or ongoing complaints, they have paused, for 37 weeks, the time you have to refer DCA complaints to the Financial Ombudsman Service from 6 to 15 months.

If you’re unhappy with a response you’ve had from us previously, the FCA have extended the maximum referral time you have to take your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service also from 6 months of getting a final response from us to 15 months, if you were sent a final response between 12 July 2023 and 20 November 2024.
