How can I find out who I had my car finance with?

Hi Formites
Can anyone please help?
I brought my car from Hyundai on finance in 2010. I believe I have my agreement number but dont know who the finance was with. I used the MSE form to contact Hyundai but they said it doesn't match their agreement numbers. Their response was
Our finance agreement numbers are 14 digits long and start with either 450, 650 or 100. Unless you have a finance agreement number matching this format, I would suggest that this finance agreement was not with Santander Consumer Finance.
I have my old bank statement that show a reference number against my loan payments, its 9 digits and starts 9268? Does anyone recognise this?
Thanks

Has anyone found out how to find who provided finance older than 6 years ago. We're coming up with a blank from bank who said they don't keep records longer than 6 years and the same answer from the car company0

The only way you would find this is your own records - emails from the dealer for example, paperwork in the loft, that sort of thing. If your current bank is the one you had when you took out the finance then they will hold records longer than 6 years, maybe DSAR them if they can't provide anything easilypobcat said:Has anyone found out how to find who provided finance older than 6 years ago.

People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

Data Subject Access Request - you can write to them and they have to look for all the data they have on you and then send it to you, unless there is no record left. They should have an email or address on their website2lovelydogys said:
