UK unveils up to £18bn scheme for car finance mis-selling compensation
TL;DR Summary
Victims of car finance mis-selling are expected to receive less than £950 per deal through a proposed compensation scheme by the FCA, with the first payouts anticipated next year. The Supreme Court ruled that hidden commissions from lenders to dealers were not unlawful, but left open the possibility for claims related to large commissions deemed unfair. The FCA plans to consult on eligibility and payout amounts, covering agreements from 2007 onwards, with the industry expected to bear the costs.
