What Is a BMW Finance Claim?

A BMW car finance claim is one where you were mis-sold a car finance agreement by BMW or the dealership they used. This means you may have been charged hidden commissions, given poor advice, or not properly informed about the full cost of your car finance deal.

Common reasons for a claim include:

  • Not being told about high interest rates or added fees
  • Hidden commission payments between the lender and dealer
  • Poor or misleading advice from the salesperson
  • Missing or unclear information in your finance agreement

If any of these apply to you, you could be eligible to claim compensation. The responsibility falls on BMW and the dealership to prove they acted fairly. If they can't, you may be owed a refund.

BMW has already set aside hundreds of millions of pounds to cover mis-selling claims. Don't miss the opportunity to check if you're entitled

Facts About BMW and UK Car Finance Mis-Selling

Millions of drivers across the UK may be entitled to compensation due to mis-sold car finance agreements, with many involving lenders such as BMW. According to the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), approximately 95% of car finance deals included commission payments between lenders and dealerships, often without the customer's knowledge. Alarmingly, up to 44%4 of these agreements may have been mis-sold, meaning many drivers unknowingly paid more than necessary.

If you financed a vehicle after 2007 using a Personal Contract Purchase (PCP), Hire Purchase (HP), lease purchase, or a personal loan arranged through a dealership, you may be eligible to claim. This applies to both new and used vehicles including cars, vans, motorcycles and trucks.

Compensation can vary based on your specific agreement. While some reports suggest potential payouts in the thousands, the FCA has stated that, on average, drivers could receive around £8302 per claim. A recent Supreme Court ruling and an FCA investigation have confirmed this is a widespread issue, paving the way for mass claims across the country.

If you suspect you were mis-sold a BMW finance agreement, now is the time to check your eligibility. With millions potentially affected and action already underway, reclaiming what you're owed could be easier than you think.
