I needed quickly some money to repair my car as it wouldn't pass MOT. I call first finance for some help as the bill was larger than I thought. They where prompted to help me in a very small time frame. I fixed the car all sort out. Thanks so much first finance.. I definitely would recommend to anyone. Best quick,straight forward service. No questions asked. Reviewed on: 11th August 2022

Really easy and credit friendly finance company

When insuring my first bike FRF were the ones to help out despite me having low credit and after a later accident the settlement was really easy and they understood the situation, which is why I chose to stay with FRF for a second time and I'm happily back on the road.

Fast response

Applied for car loan with them within about an hour I was approved, no maintain of paperwork to fill in. Found car I wanted and got in touch with them within about two hours I took home the car, the rates a little high on first finance on car but when paid off and you want another car the rates come down alot I suppose you have to prove yourself that you can pay.
