Reclaim247 is helping drivers with older or forgotten car finance agreements as lenders begin contacting customers under the FCA’s redress scheme.

UNITED KINGDOM, November 5, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ – As lenders prepare to contact customers under the FCA’s redress scheme, Reclaim247 is helping drivers who may otherwise be left behind especially those with older, forgotten, or undocumented car finance agreements.

Across the UK, millions of drivers could be owed compensation for mis-sold car finance. But when the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) launches its official redress scheme in 2026, not everyone will receive a letter or email explaining how to claim.

Many people may have moved house, changed their contact details, or taken out a finance agreement with a lender that no longer holds customer records. These drivers are at risk of being completely missed during the rollout.

That is where Reclaim247 can help. By using just a name, address and date of birth, the platform can trace car finance claims dating back as far as 2007 even if the person no longer has paperwork or remembers which lender was involved. “We speak to drivers who assume they have no chance of making a claim,” said Andrew Franks, Co-Founder of Reclaim247. “They may have sold the car years ago or moved home multiple times, but in most cases, we can still find the agreement and help them understand what went wrong.”

Why Some Drivers Might Not Hear from Lenders Under the FCA’s proposed rules, it will be up to lenders to contact affected customers directly. But this will only happen if they still have accurate contact details on file. For anyone whose agreement is several years old, or whose lender no longer exists, there is a real chance they will be left out of the process altogether. That could include a large number of PCP claims involving Personal Contract Purchase agreements. These deals often included unclear balloon payments, hidden commissions, or inflated interest rates. All of these are now considered potential examples of mis-sold car finance.

What Counts as a PCP Claim? The FCA’s consultation outlines three key types of unfair finance practices: Discretionary Commission Arrangements, where brokers were allowed to increase the interest rate to earn more commission Unfairly High Commission, where the commission earned was excessive in relation to the loan Contractually Tied Arrangements, where a broker presented limited options but claimed to offer a wider choice If any of these issues applied to a finance deal, the customer may be eligible to bring a PCP claim or broader car finance claim forward.
