Responsible principal firm
AUTOMOTIVE COMPLIANCE LIMITED Reference number: 497010 View firm →What does this mean?
- An introducer appointed representative can only pass your details to its principal firm. It cannot recommend products, give financial advice, or arrange deals on its own.
- 247 AUTOCENTRE LTD (FRN 1059731) introduces customers to AUTOMOTIVE COMPLIANCE LIMITED (FRN 497010). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not 247 AUTOCENTRE.
- Example: if 247 AUTOCENTRE refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from 247 AUTOCENTRE itself.
- Before you proceed, confirm contact details match the official FCA register for both firms. Scammers sometimes clone legitimate AR names and FRNs but use fake phone numbers and websites.
Website, phone number and address
Compare these against whatever you were given. Scammers clone real firm names and reference numbers but use their own phone number and website, so a detail that does not match the register is the clearest warning sign there is.
