Finance Withdrawn

Thanks to this poisonous campaign, I have now had a finance offer withdrawn. Great. So I chose a car, was made an finance offer, I was happy with the repayments and other terms, but before I got to sign up the offer has been withdrawn. Now what am I supposed to do? I was happy to sign because I was happy to take responsibility for my own financial decisions. This problem has been brought about by freeloading ambulance chasers who seen to think that everyone owes them something. If you too were happy with the offer back in the day, why do you get to change your mind now and claim? I fully expect that when the lenders have sorted out their terms and conditions that I will be able to get a new offer of financing for this, but I fully expect to cost a lot more! Nothing is free in this life. People would be wise to heed that fact.

Fail to see what you rejection has to do with the finance reclaim.
I would guess it has more to do with your affordability of the finance under FCA regulations.
While you may be happy to take responsibility for my own financial decisions. That does not wash with lenders, & the regulations.Life in the slow lane0 -
A recent appeal court decision has retrospectively rewritten the rules for car financing arrangements. So, all offers have been blocked pending the lenders deciding how to handle it. Hopefully just a delay, but I feel they are likely to charge more if they have to cover off all these spurious claims.0

As has been said before somebody will pay for all these compo claims and ultimately the finance companies will get it back from us, the consumer.0 -

For example the above, Close have said they aren't accepting any new motor finance applications at the moment. Would imagine some others will have followed. No doubt wanting to review their documents and procedures to ensure commissions are obvious enough especially as the CoA said having it in the General Conditions was too hidden and many wouldn't have read it (despite generally it being the case that someone not reading the terms cannot use that as a defence)
The OP also said they'd had an offer thats been withdrawn, it's not that they just applied and were rejected.1 -
