DCA Guidance - Dealership notification

Options
Hi all,

I've had 3 car Finance agreements since 2009 - 2 of which I've managed to find the details for and send the template off to the lenders, one of which I've already heard back from (Close Brothers) saying I was subject to a DCA in my finance.

The oldest one (let this be a lesson to me) I binned all the details a while back.

I've made an informal enquiry to the dealership I originally purchased from -without mentioning DCA - And they've come back with an official response basically fobbing me off.

Now, how do I proceed from here? Should I send the formal letter hoping they forward on to the Finance provider? 

I've got an inkling that its Black Horse but I want to be as certain as possible before contacting them.

(I've been in touch with the bank already and intend to go in branch to see if they can help)

    You wait until the FCA publish their report which will give instructions on what to and will tell providers what they need to (assuming the FCA find a failure).

    There is nothing to be gained by doing this now.  You are just wasting your time and energy.
