First response helped me get my car on finance after my business went under and I had bad credit in 2013. And I have been with them ever since. There not the cheapest car finance company but there customer service is excellent and every time I re finance I get better APR and I’m on my 5th car with them now Reviewed on: 22nd July 2022

Friendly, caring and efficient finance company

I was able to get a new car when other companies were not willing to accept me. First Response Finance had a chat with me to understand my situation and took my story into consideration when making a decision rather than just replying on a computer decision. I will always be thankful for that. When I have had to speak with them, they have been friendly and caring. They are also efficient in the way they work Reviewed on: 22nd July 2022
