Complete the form and we’ll refer your details to a regulated partner firm a claims management company or a firm of solicitors who will assess your enquiry. Some partners are solicitors, so a claim may proceed to court. There’s no obligation and it’s free to enquire.
Go Claim is a claims enquiry and referral service. We do not assess, handle, manage or represent your claim ourselves, and we are not a law firm. We collect your enquiry and refer it to a regulated partner firm who will then check whether you have a valid claim and, if you do and you choose to go ahead with them, handle it for you. Go Claim is paid a referral fee by that partner firm; it is not an extra charge added to your bill. Because we are paid for referrals, please remember you are free to claim yourself for free instead.
1. You submit an enquiry. You complete the short form above with your details.
2. We refer your enquiry to one of our regulated partner firms. Which firm takes it is decided after you submit, so we cannot tell you in advance which firm it will be.
3. The partner firm takes it from there. They assess whether you have a claim and, if you are eligible and agree to their terms, they handle the claim for you. From that point your agreement is with the partner firm, not with Go Claim.
Before January 2021, many car finance lenders allowed dealers and brokers to set or increase the interest rate on Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) and other motor finance agreements. The higher the rate, the more commission the dealer earned. These “discretionary commission arrangements”, and some other commission deals, were often not properly explained to customers. If that happened to you, you may have paid more than you should have and could be owed redress (money back). This applies to many car, van and motorbike finance agreements, not only PCP.
You do not have to use Go Claim, a claims management company or a law firm to make a claim, and you do not have to pay anyone. You can claim yourself for free by:
The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has set up a free motor finance redress scheme so that consumers can seek redress without paying a firm. Please note there is an ongoing legal challenge relating to motor finance commission, which may cause delays to some claims and to the scheme itself. If you use a partner firm, this may also affect how long your claim takes.
The partner firms we may refer you to are either claims management companies or firms of solicitors. Some of our partners are solicitors who can take a claim to court if needed. This means that, depending on which firm receives your enquiry and how your claim progresses, your claim may proceed to court. The partner firm will explain this to you before you commit to anything.
Please make your claim through one firm only. If you ask more than one firm (or the FCA scheme and a firm) to act on the same finance agreement, you could end up liable for more than one set of fees for the same claim. If you have already started a claim with another firm or are using the FCA scheme, please do not submit an enquiry here.
If you claim yourself, it is free. If you choose to use a partner firm and your claim succeeds, that firm charges a success fee from your redress. Go Claim does not charge you the success fee is the partner firm’s and is taken from any money you are awarded. All our partners use the same FCA fee cap, which is a sliding scale based on how much you get back:
Overall, the fee ranges from 18% to 36% including VAT. Example: if you are awarded £1,000, the fee would be £360 including VAT and you would keep £640. Any money you are awarded may be reduced for example, a lender may use part of an award to reduce money you still owe on the finance, and the interest part of any award can be taxable so the amount you actually receive may be lower.
Cancellation: with any partner firm you can cancel free of charge within the 14 day cooling off period. If you cancel after that, the firm may charge you for the work it has already done. These cancellation charges vary from firm to firm, so always check the partner firm’s own terms and conditions, which they will give you.
We want everyone to understand what they are agreeing to. If you have a disability, a health condition, are going through a difficult time, find forms hard to deal with, or just need a little more help, please tell us. Email info@goclaim.com and we will do our best to support you or make sure the partner firm does. You can ask for information in a different format, take more time to decide, or have someone help you.
