Business Finance Services Co.

Business Finance Services Co. (FRN 194660) is not directly authorised. It is an appointed representative acting under the responsibility of a directly authorised principal firm.

An appointed representative (AR) can carry out regulated financial services, but is not directly authorised by the FCA. A principal firm holds the authorisation and is legally responsible for the AR's conduct. Business Finance Services Co. (FRN 194660) is an AR of The On-Line Partnership Limited (FRN 192638). When you use Business Finance Services Co.'s services, the FCA authorisation sits with the principal firm. Example: if you take financial advice from Business Finance Services Co., complaints and compensation usually follow the same rules as dealing with the principal, but this depends on the product and your circumstances. 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.

The FCA register lists the phone number 01273 495446 for Business Finance Services Co.. If you were given different contact details, use these to check with the firm before going any further.

Business Finance Services Co. is a genuine FCA-listed firm, and the FCA has published no warnings about fake versions of it. Scammers do copy real firms, though, so check that any contact details you were given match the ones on the register.

Protection works through The On-Line Partnership Limited, the principal firm responsible for Business Finance Services Co.'s regulated activity. FSCS cover and the Financial Ombudsman Service apply as they would to the principal.

It trades as BFS Co. It has previously used 3 other names: Richard Boddie, Richard Boddie & Joanne Boddie and Be Financially Secure.
