Credit Search Information

If you proceed with an order you would have already provided consent for a credit search to be completed as part of the credit application.

Though the Order form is not a ‘finance agreement’, this notice is to confirm that your details have been passed to one of our funder partners (finance company) and we are now at a point to proceed with your order. As such we need to ensure you are aware of the following and understand what takes place when you apply: 

To process your order following the credit application, the finance company will perform credit and identity checks on you with one or more credit reference agencies (“CRAs”). Please also be aware that the finance company may also make periodic searches at CRAs as part of managing your account.

To do this, your personal information will be passed to CRAs and they will give the finance company information about you. This will include information from your credit application and about your financial situation and financial history. The CRAs will also supply both public (including the electoral register) and shared credit, financial situation and financial history information and fraud prevention information.

The information is used to:

  • Assess your creditworthiness and whether you can afford to take the product;
  • Verify the accuracy of the data you have provided to us;
  • Prevent criminal activity, fraud and money laundering;
  • Manage your account(s);
  • Trace and recover debts; and
  • Ensure any offers provided to you are appropriate to your circumstances.

The finance company will continue to exchange information about you with CRAs while you have a relationship with them. The CRAs will also be informed about your settled accounts. If you borrow and do not repay in full and on time, CRAs will record the outstanding debt. This information may be supplied to other organisations by CRAs.

Please be aware that when CRAs receive a search from the finance company a search footprint will be placed on your credit file and this may be seen by other lenders.

The personal information we have collected from you will be shared with fraud prevention agencies who will use it to prevent fraud and money-laundering and to verify your identity. Please be aware that if fraud is detected, you could be refused certain services, finance, or employment. For further details of how your information will be used by the finance company or ‘Stanningley Commercials ltd Leasing’ please email  info@stancom.uk

The links below provide more information and detail regarding the identities of the CRAs, their role also as fraud prevention agencies, the data they hold, the ways in which they use and share personal information, data retention periods and your data protection rights with the CRAs.

What can we do to help finance your vehicle?

We can introduce you (whether direct or through a specialist credit broker) to a number of finance companies  (“funders”) who may be able to finance your transaction, There are other funders to which we cannot introduce you which may also be able to offer you finance.

We will provide you with information and explanations about the finance products that may be available to you  and, where we recommend a product to you, we will ensure that this is based on the information you give us about your needs and circumstances so that it is suitable for you. Finance is arranged subject to status  and terms and conditions. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to secure finance for you.

Can we give you independent financial advice?

We are not independent financial advisers and so are unable to provide you with independent financial advice. We are, however, independent of the funders and brokers we work with.

Do you have to pay for our service or do we receive any commission?

You don’t have to pay us for our service

But a funder or broker we work with will, may pay us for introducing you to them. Different funders/brokers may pay us different amounts but it will typically be based on a fixed percentage of the amount borrowed. This percentage may vary according to different factors, for example: the amount of credit; the age or type of vehicle; the type of finance product; or the funder’s assessment of the risk of lending. Special offers may also be available from time to time for a limited duration. These may be provided by one or more of our funders or brokers and we may receive different commission amounts for introductions made during the offer period. For your reassurance, we are not able to change the interest rate you pay in order to receive more commission from a particular broker or funder.  Although rates and commissions may vary between our finance partners, our aim is always to secure finance from them which is appropriate to your circumstances and at the lowest interest rate available.

If we are successful in obtaining an offer of finance for you and you would like to know the amount (or likely amount) we would receive if you decided to go ahead with the agreement and how that amount has been calculated, please contact us using the details above 

How will we use your information?

We will use your information to obtain quotes from funders and brokers to process finance applications through  them and we and/or they may also conduct a search of your record held with one or more credit reference agencies.Credit checks may as a result appear on your credit file lodged by organisations with whom you have  not dealt directly. The personal information collected will also be shared with fraud prevention agencies who will use it to prevent fraud and money laundering and to verify your identity. If fraud is detected you could be refused certain services, finance or employment.
