“Great service”

★★★★★

written by Josephaudia5 on 10/11/2022

I recently purchased a car and spent more money than I have ever invested in a car. From start to finish Jamal my account manager was always very informative and reassuring. I don't usually write reviews but I really felt Jamal and his team really looked after me and the end result is I have a beautiful Audi A5. Good on you Jamal and team keep up the good work. Thanks

“Selling categoryS is illegal”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Jay2982828282 on 05/11/2022

Used their recommended firm, Swale Car Shop, who has missold us a categoryS as full road worthy, a criminal offence, now left without a vehicle for weeks. Do not buy from here or via carfinance247 they will then completely ignore you or if they do talk to you mislead you and breach FCA rules. Claim they do not sell finance and not open 247 so name is even complete lies AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

“Very Helpful and Kind”

★★★★★

written by FranklinBenjamin on 18/11/2021

From beginning to end, this service was outstanding. The adviser was great. I'd chosen the car I wanted, and the financing and application procedure was a breeze. In barely over 24 hours, everything was fixed. He kept me up to date with calls and emails, and it was all really simple and delightful. It is something I would suggest!

“Best Experience Ever ”

★★★★★

written by newtofinance on 24/10/2021

Car finance 247 i highly recommend. They use reputable garages not back street garages and the dealership I had was through even when I texted them asking wheres the petrol/diesel button.. Only to get to Tescos and wonder where the handbrake is ! I git a beautiful 2013 Vauxhall Antara. It was my very first time at car finance and my account manager was with me through it every step of the way which made me feel it was all being taken care of in a very competent, efficient, professional manner. To be honest he went the extra mile just like the dealer cannot fault them and highly recommend them if your looking for an honest finance company whose not just about the sale , who goes out there way to find you the best purchase with you and works extremely hard with what you are looking to buy look no further . Well and truly deserve any commission they make as they work so extremely hard continuously keeping you in the loop .. Absolutely thrilled with my car and so pleased that I had a great account manager who help to get my wonderful high quality 4x4 station wagon which had been thoroughly serviced and this Finance company have a policy to make certain if MOT is under 5 months to do a new one. It was done in a safe Covid manner . Although the car was not nearby, miles away to collect video and delivery was arranged and I had the option to cancel this within 14 days of transaction but no way am I!! I love it !!!!! Thankyou so much to my account manager for making this happens !!!!

The staff at Carfinace 24/7 are excellent at what they do from start to finish. Very helpful in explaining everything step by step. Friendly and not pushy in anyway what so ever unlike some other companies that I don’t want to mention. Carfinace 24/7 took just over a week to find a car and get all the paperwork ready way faster than other places that took over a couple of months. I would recommend you guys to anyone who is thinking of buying a car. The whole process from start to finish was quick and top notch. Thank you guys for what you have done for me.

“Excellent from start to finish”

★★★★★

written by SHEL8866 on 27/04/2021

This is the 3rd time I have used Car Finance 247 to purchase a car and each time they have been excellent. The whole process took a week and from start to finish I felt that my interests were looked after and that my needs were very important. The lady that dealt with my application explained everything clearly and was very patient with me when I couldn’t decide which car to go for. I would, and have, highly recommend this company to family and friends, and if needed I would definitely use again.

“Efficient, Simple and Comprehensive”

★★★★★

written by Mar-Car-Cass on 21/04/2021

It is daunting buying a car, especially when you are on a budget. The Kia Showroom had rejected me even though I have a good record when it comes to paying debts, and I was actually worried that CarFinance247 wouldn't be able to help. Not only did we figure out what I actually wanted, the account manager motivated and enabled me to supply the appropriate documentation. From communicating with the approved dealership to sourcing funding for a reasonably priced car... I could not have asked for more support or patience. Highly recommend this method of funding, especially if you can find a car at a repayment rate that's within your budget. I'm glad that the costs were made available to me and upfront before I made a decision, and felt reassured when offers came in to my Account Manager - as I knew I wasn't a total lost cause.

It depends how quick you are really. I was able to take care of everything in two days. And then took me roughly a week to be able to get the car after choosing it.

It says in their advert that "no credit footprint will be left". Yet going through the application and getting to the T&C's it reads; " a credit search will be made with multiple agencies, this will be seen on your credit file". How then can that then leave, (as the advert reads) "no credit footprint"?

The interest rate is based on your credit score, car finance don't actually decide how much interest you're going to pay its the finance company that's willing to take on your application. I got a car from them in December it was hassle free and wasn't charged a fee like other companies want. I also have friends with average/poor credit who I referred to them who have gone on to purchase cars from them. Ultimately the decision is yours if you want to take out the finance.

I am on a Trust deed, well over half way through the period. I continue to pay my car loan regularly but my car is now high mileage and looking like it will cost me money soon. I am looking to get finance but although my current finance house are happy with my regular payments, their underwriter cannot approve a new loan since I am obviously on the AIB register (trust deed).  What are the chances of CarFinance247 supporting my application for a car loan?

Moneybarn are the best company for this, I reckon. You'll need to get the approval of your trustee before they will consider you but they have approved people with trust deeds in the past.

If you are in full time work & earning over £1000 pm then I would say your chances are good. I started making payments on my new car last October but obviously the APR is slightly more increased then normal due to my poor credit score.

I can only speak from experience. I would not trust carfinance247 as far as I could throw them. ABSOLUTE SHOWER !!! They say you have the finance, then you don't, then you do, then you don't etc etc, you get the picture. UKCREDIT I have found to be brilliant. It's not a guarantee that you will be accepted but at least you get treated as a normal person, by a normal person and they go to great lengths to help you as much as possible. This is only my experience but over time I have dealt with a few and I cannot fault UKCREDIT.

My hubby has already spoke to someone and they requested a fee but it sounds a bit dodgy and we don't want to waste that amount of money to a company that we don't know of.

Kept telling me I was approved with no problems. Took me a week to find a suitable vehicle. Rang them and again I was assured all was well, so I placed a deposit on the vehicle. Then when it came to the crunch, NO finance. Said it had been re-evaluated and declined. All within an hour of saying "no problem". Then all of a sudden, they are not keen to talk to you. Trust them at your peril !!!
