Address motor finance commission
complaints challenge with Recordsure AI

This critical time for motor finance providers now opens the door to take stock and leverage smart technology and specialist expertise to assess exposure and build a proactive response.

The rising tech challenge of motor finance commission complaints

The FCA’s ongoing review into historic motor finance practices – particularly discretionary commission arrangements (DCAs) – continues to reshape the motor finance landscape.

While DCAs (where dealers could adjust interest rates to increase their own commission) are squarely in scope, the Supreme Court’s ruling on 1st August 2025 affirmed that even non-DCA arrangements may now warrant redress if deemed part of an “unfair” relationship under the Consumer Credit Act (CCA).

What's ahead for

Motor finance firms

Why is this critical time for motor finance providers now opening the door to take stock and leverage smart technology and specialist expertise to assess exposure and build a proactive response?

  • The FCA will launch a consultation by early October 2025 on an industry–wide redress scheme, with compensation expected to begin in 2026.
  • The estimated total liability ranges from £9 billion to £18 billion, impacting around 14.6 million contracts since 2007.
  • Most payouts are projected to be under £950 per agreement, though some may receive more depending on case specifics; simple interest (3%) may also apply.
  • The FCA’s approach is likely to be opt–out, automatically notifying eligible customers to maximise fairness and accessibility, and reduce reliance on claims management companies.
  • The House of Lords has called for the eligibility window to be shortened from 2007, perhaps aligning claims to a six–year civil limitation period, raising concerns about data availability and administrative burden.
  • A surge in complaints and DSARs is already materialising, even before scheme details are finalised.
