“We have been working with Consumer Credit Compliance for a few years as we offer finance for the purchase of our products and have chosen the AR route. Working in a regulated space can be daunting when it is new, but the support provided with the e-learning is so helpful, especially as it can be revisited as necessary. Our monthly reviews with Ian are clear and he is really understanding and he supports us well. He is a really decent person to work with in partnership on our compliance. The support and patience provided by the wider team, when we did our first annual review is really appreciated too.”

“After learning we needed permissions to conduct our regulated business, we chose to become an Appointed Representative as opposed to becoming directly authorised. We chose Consumer Credit Compliance Limited who took the hassle out of submitting our forms to the FCA. We have a good working relationship with CCC who we closely engage with to ensure we remain compliant. Their monitoring of our business against the FCA's Threshold Conditions gives us the confidence we are doing things right. We have been an AR for a number of years now and this has allowed our business to grow compliantly.”

The support from the team has allowed us to meet and exceed our business goals. A partnership we are confident will continue long into the future.”

“Van Monster are a national Used LCV retailer with a portfolio of 8,000 retail sales pa. We are also an appointed representative of Consumer Credit Compliance Ltd (CCC). Our business is mostly conducted at a distance with a customer who is in a hurry to conclude the sale & get his business back on the rails. People don't buy a used van on a Sunday afternoon browsing around a vehicle showroom, they want to buy it now because their current van has broken, been stolen or is no longer fit for purpose. As such, virtually every sale we conclude is a distressed purchase. Put all that together along with an ambitious F&I regime where finance & protection products are an integral part of our business plan & customer offering, conducting a sale compliantly was initially a daunting task. This is where the staff at CCC really came into their own. As a team of people, they have a plethora of real-world experiences in sales, compliance, finance, etc. As such, with CCC's help, support & expertise, we were able to devise a sales process that is not only effective, it is customer focussed & 100% compliant. We have operated this sales process for over 2 years now. The F&I revenue we generate now is more than double what it was 2 years ago. This is down to a sales process that firstly ascertains a customer's wants, needs & budget before making clear & correct recommendations on vehicle selection, funding & protection. The customer is always given enough information to make a considered decision on every aspect of the sale. All this is recorded on bespoke customer-friendly sales process documentation that works both face to face or electronically on a distance sale. Because of this process, our sales are up, our revenue is up & our regulated complaints are zero. CCC did not devise for us a compliance process, they helped us make our sales process complaint & at the same time more effective. Any retail business that offer consumer credit or general insurance as part of their portfolio should consult with CCC asap. Not so that you can be more compliant, so that CCC can help you to be more effective, the compliance comes as an integral part of being more effective!”
