Fantastic Experience

5
First Response Finance has Finansed two cars for me.From the start to the finish of me getting my cars it went so smoothly on both occasions.I didn't have to keep calling them to ask about anything as the company keeps you informed about what is happening every step of the way and what I was told would happen is exactly what happened throughout the whole process.Also on both occasions the funds for both cars were paid to the car company's when they said it would be and I was able to collect both cars as arranged with the car company's. When I enquired about my second car which I purchased in 2020 I was also given a lower Finance rate which I was told would happen if I wanted to change my car in the future and used the company again to finance it. I would recommend First Response Finance to anyone without hesitation and will definitely be sing them again when I decide to change my car. Thanks very much First Response Finance for a very stressles experience for which I am also experiencing with my second car. Reviewed on: 13th August 2021

Fair & Easy!

I think I have been with First Response Finance for 8 years or so now? They have always been fair and easy to use. Never had any issues with them, have good deals when it comes to getting new car finance & they are very quick too, in fact, I would say quicker than a car dealership sorting your finance out. You have a basic and perfect online account if you want to check payments/dates/change things, no issues at all. Also, Can I give a big shout out to all the staff I have dealt with at first response, they have always been very nice, polite and helpful. Reviewed on: 13th August 2021
