Fast , friendly and efficient

I spent weeks looking at different offer and with bad credit I was getting to the lending stage and the repayment was unaffordable. I found first response finance through a broker and got an instant quote. They called me and spoke through everything over the phone and explained all prices and charges. The cherry on top was I was asked how long I wanted to take the finance over and how much I wanted to pay this is where they stood out from the rest. I wanted to pay £200/month but it didn't fall within the 48 month max they had so they compromised and let me pay it over 50 months at 200/month Outstanding company and can also set payments for each time you are paid so you never miss a payment Reviewed on: 13th August 2021

World Class Support

I first applied for Car Finance in 2019, FRF made the application easy. A usually daunting process was seamless and stress free. I renewed my finance in 2020 when I purchased a new car. It was even easier to do this, they gave me a value of what I was allowed and I chose my car accordingly. So easy, stress free helpful. Recommend to everyone. Reviewed on: 13th August 2021
