Complaints

We’re here to help – let’s get you to the right place

We aim to provide a high standard of service at all times. If something hasn’t gone as expected, we’re sorry – and we want to help you resolve it as quickly as possible.

Depending on your situation, the best place to raise your concern may be with your dealer, your lender, or us. The guidance below will help you find the right route.

Before making a complaint

In many cases, your issue can be resolved more quickly by contacting the most appropriate provider directly.

Issue with your vehicle

If your complaint relates to the condition, quality, or suitability of your vehicle, you will need to contact the dealership you purchased the vehicle from. They are responsible for investigating and resolving vehicle-related issues.

Issue with your car finance or support needed

If you have a question or issue relating to your car finance agreement, or you need support with your account, you should contact your car finance lender directly.

Our Funder Contact Details page covers the information you’ll need.

Your lender has full visibility of your agreement and is responsible for managing your finance and any related queries.

Top tip

Contacting your lender directly is usually the quickest way to resolve finance-related queries. Having your agreement details to hand can help speed things up. If you’re unsure who your lender is, you can check your agreement or recent emails or letters.
Car finance commission and Motor Finance Redress Scheme

If your query relates to commission on your motor finance agreement, including Discretionary Commission Arrangements (DCA) or non-DCA commission, it is recommended that you contact your motor finance provider directly.

Your motor finance provider is responsible for your finance agreement and is best placed to investigate and respond to your query, including whether your agreement may be affected by the Motor Finance Consumer Redress Scheme.

In some cases, your motor finance provider may contact you directly where appropriate. You can also contact them if you have any questions about your agreement.

You can use our Funder Contact Details page to find the correct information.

If you are unsure who your motor finance provider is, you can check your agreement or any recent correspondence, such as emails or letters.

Evolution Funding Limited and My Car Credit act as credit brokers and are not lenders. We do not manage finance agreements or hold full details of your contract. However, if you contact us, we will help direct your query to the appropriate party.

We keep our Motor Finance Consumer Redress Scheme information up-to-date.
