Complaints

If you are reading this, something may have gone wrong. We’re sorry if it has. We are committed to providing products and service of the highest standard. If for any reason you feel you are not entirely satisfied with any aspect of our service please let us know straight away. Our Complaints department will investigate your complaint competently, diligently and impartially.
We are aware that the Money Saving Expert Car Finance reclaim tool states that Evolution Funding and My Car Credit could have been your finance provider. Is also states that the provider is the company who supplied your finance agreement, not the car dealer or broker. Evolution Funding and My Car Credit are brokers and have never been a lender. Any communications should therefore be made directly to your finance provider as Evolution Funding and/or My Car Credit are unable to respond to communications designed for your finance provider.

How to make your complaint

First, let us know what has happened. You can call us, email us or write to us. We will allocate you your own complaints handler for the duration of your complaint (see “contacting us” at the end of this leaflet).

We need to know:

  • Your name and address.
  • Your agreement number or policy number as appropriate.
  • Details of how we can contact you.
  • A clear description of your complaint and whether any 3rd party is involved.
  • Details of what you would like us to do to resolve your complaint.
  • If appropriate, copies of any relevant supporting documentation.

What happens next?

We’ll contact you within 2 working days to let you know we are looking into your complaint and clarify any points where necessary. We will keep you regularly updated about what’s happening and discuss our findings. We will take into account all of the available evidence, the circumstances, relevant laws or regulation, as well as guidance from the Financial Ombudsman Service.

Final response

When we have investigated your complaint we will write to you to let you know our final response. This detailed letter will tell you what we have found, what we plan to do and how we came to our decision. If it is going to take us more than eight weeks to resolve your complaint, from when you first contacted us, when we will update you on our progress and explain why it is still ongoing.

Complaints about discretionary commission agreements

On the 11th January 2024 the FCA announced it was undertaking a review of historic discretionary commission arrangements in the motor finance market. This includes a pause to the normal 8 week timeframe to respond to complaints relating to discretionary commission arrangements. During this pause we will continue to investigate any complaint relating to commission but we may not respond with a final response until the FCA have concluded their investigation which is currently expected by the end of September 2024.

Further details of the announcement can be found here FCA to undertake work in the motor finance market | FCA which include further details on your rights to refer to the FOS.
