Today at 13:58pm I have emailed Stellantis regarding 4 vehicle agreements, initial response received 13:59pm - Thank you for email etc and then at 2:00pm - After checking our records, we can tell you that we did not pay a discretionary commission to the dealer.
Surely they haven’t had time to check or am I missing something ??

Surely they haven’t had time to check or am I missing something ??How much longer would you like their computer to take for something that is a simple question with a binary answer?
I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.1 -
To be fair, the particular database table that is queried is probably in cache memory at the moment.0

I have the finance agreement in my hand .
After a few weeks I sent an email to Stella this and after a week or so go a reply saying I did have a DCA and they will get back to me.
I had another Vauxhall car bought 2 years before on finance but no agreement just Car reg and they said they have no details so goodbye.
They may have upped their game now so they could be correct.
The cars bought from main dealers were in 2008 and 2010.0 -
This thing has been dragging on for a long time - I would expect any company that might be liable would have been carrying out checks to find out just how much their liability might be.In some cases they may well have become part of another group or could it be their exposure is so great that having to pay out would bankrupt them. They may well have ceased trading.Just because it says ford over the door does not mean it is owned by them as I had to explain to people at times0
