Important update: We're back open for business

Following the UK Court of Appeal judgment on Friday 25th October, we took the decision to pause new business from Monday 28th October while we worked to mitigate the legal implications to protect our dealers, brokers and customers.

We have now made the necessary adjustments to ensure the business can operate within the legal requirements set out in the judgment and are now open for new business in MotoNovo. We do understand the pause to new business created challenges for you, and we thank you for your patience and support while we have been navigating the impact of the judgment.

What happens to my monthly instalments after I raise a vehicle complaint?

You still need to make your monthly payments to us even if you’ve raised a complaint. It's important to understand what can happen when you stop making your monthly repayments. Your credit file could be affected, and a poor credit score could mean:

  • You get rejected for future credit applications
  • You’re given a smaller credit limit or higher interest rates
  • It could affect anyone who is financially associated with you (for example, through a joint bank account or credit agreement) and impact their ability to get credit.

If you’re having difficulty making your payments, we’re here to help. Find out more.
