I know this is a bit of a random one. But thought I'd post this incase anyone missed it.
Car finance companies made a deal with dealerships. Set your own interest rates and you'll make more money on sales. Only they never told the customer they were doing this. As far as we knew, the interest rate was set and there was no wiggle room. This wasn't the case. What makes this a scandal, is the finance companies and dealerships never told the customers this.
This could be as big as the bankers PPI scandal.
Customers, who took out finance on a car before 2021 could be awarded over £1000 compensation on their purchase.
The Martin Lewis website has generated an email that you can send off to the finance company, all you have to do is answer a few questions on the form. Takes 2 minutes. And could put cash back in your pocket.
I've had 2 cars on finance over the last 10 years. I've sent 2 emails.
A decision will be made on September on how the finance companies have to deal with this but Martin Lewis reckons there could be 13 billion pounds of payout coming down the line......well worth having a look if its effected you....
