What is an Initial Disclosure Document?

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is the independent regulator of financial services. The FCA require us to provide you with a document called an 'Initial Disclosure Document'. This document provides information about us, the products we offer, the services we will provide, what we charge for our services, who regulates us and what to do if you have a complaint.

Who regulates us?

We are authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority for credit brokerage. Our FCA number is 820925. You can check this on the FCA's website www.fca.gov.uk/register or by contacting the FCA on 0300 500 8082.

Treating customers fairly

Angus Motor Company is committed to ensuring that the FCA principle of treating customers fairly (TCF) is applied in all areas of our day-to-day business activities. We aim to ensure that the TCF principle is embedded and rooted in everything that we do. This principle underpins how we operate and function as a business.

Which service will we provide you with?

We offer a non-advised service, meaning we cannot give you advice or a recommendation on products. But in assessing your application we will ask you for information to enable us to identify your needs and present a selection of products relevant to your requirements. You will then need to make your own choice about how to proceed. You will receive the pre-contract credit information which will detail the Terms & Conditions of the product you have chosen and advise you about any other fees and interest relating to the product.

What products do we offer?

We offer a limited number of finance products from a selected panel of lenders. Customers can view these products on our website https://www.angusmotorcompany.co.uk/ or through talking with a member of staff in our showroom. We would advise you to consider your options and decide if they meet your requirements. Angus Motor Company is a credit intermediary, not a financial advisory service nor a lender.

What will you have to pay us for our services?

We do not charge a fee for the introduction to the finance provider.

Commission Disclosure

We will typically receive a commission payment from the finance provider if you decide to enter into an agreement with them. The amount of commission can be made available to you upon request over the phone and/or in writing.

Suitability and Affordability

We aim to support and tailor our service appropriately to those customers who may be particularly vulnerable due to their current circumstances or recent life events. If you have a disability, physical or mental health condition, feel vulnerable due to a change in personal circumstances, or just need extra support please let us know and we will do our best to help you. You should make sure you have sufficient time and support to assess the information given to you and ensure the funding option offered is suitable for you and meets your requirements. If you are unsure, please don't hesitate to ask us for further explanations, help and support.

It is important that you only enter into an agreement if you can comfortably afford the repayments. You should assess the monthly payments you are required to make throughout the term of the agreement and ensure you can meet these and other current obligations without suffering undue hardship. If you are aware of any changes in your life or your household circumstances that may affect your ability to maintain your loan repayments, please make us aware. Your credit rating could be adversely affected if you do not make payments when due which could make it harder or more expensive for you to access finance facilities in the future.

Just bought a car from AMC and we had a great experience from start to finish, we dealt with Rob, who couldn't have been any better, great time for people, explained any questions we had, picked up our car and honestly it was like new, we certainly will be back.
— Jean Donegan
Great service from start to finish. Rob looked after me and quality was second to none
— David
Excellent customer service and after car collection care. No pushy sales, I got a new black alloy wheel which made my car more appealling, clean sheet MOT. After I collected my car, I noticed a slight sound. I called the garage, without any hesitation I was asked to bring the car over; they checked it promptly and assured me that nothing was wrong that it was pretty normal. To further reassure me, the service staff took me on a test drive. I am writing this review a month after my car collection, and no issues! Both the Sales and service team are great in terms of service. I highly recommend AMC. Thank you also for gifting me £20 for my first fuelling😊

There was no pressure to buy, Robb was very informative, honest and friendly. A relaxing atmosphere and lovely team. First class service. The fact that we got a doorstep delivery was amazing. A huge thank you to Robb, boss man (Jim) and Dianna.

So glad we purchased our car from Angus Motor Company as we have had excellent contact and assistance from the very first phone call. We also felt confident we got a great deal and found a very trustworthy company. We have absolutely no qualms with dealing with them again in the future. A full years MOT plus a great warranty also gave us the peace of mind that we were being sold a vehicle they were 100% confident in. A full service and valet before we collected showed pride in their work.— with Jamie Beglin.
— Nicki Ross
Excellent all-round service from an approachable and competent team. Needed a car quickly which I bought after easygoing, no-pressure sale delivered by friendly salesman. That car has so far exceeded all expectations. Also left my treasured old Audi A4 with them for repairs and MOT and am not sure it has ever run better during my ownership with virtually a clean sheet which I've never seen before. Besides top admin and sales staff, they obviously employ highly professional and caring mechanics not always easy to find these days. So would highly recommend.
— Charlie Lush
WOW……..What great customer service and got to meet the big boss him self… payment process was nice and easy and drove my new car away the same day…… after all paper work was finalised of course. Would a 100% recommend this garage.
