Hi.I don't know why but I stupidly signed upto 2 or 3 claim Companies to help me with my car Finance claim. I think I did it as I honestly never thought it would go any further. But now I am getting lots of emails from these companies saying they are making progress with my claim. I have obviously gone past the cooling off period so I am worrying about what to do.Please help me.

First things first, what paperwork did you sign up to - and what does it say about payable fees if you withdraw from their services? usually if you try and withdraw then they will charge you for work undertaken on your behalf so far, so start with checking that.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

As long as you signed up to three or less then it would just wipe out any compensation that may or may not be paid, far cheaper than any potential cancellation charges.Repobot123 said:

There is not really anything to fight, you signed up to contracts, your best best is to wait for the scheme to be formally announced, you may well get nothing and have nothing to pay.Repobot123 said:

Considering the whole thing is on hold at present ask them for a written report detailing the progress they claim to have madeBlackcatuser said:But now I am getting lots of emails from these companies saying they are making progress with my claim.0
