What does this mean?

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.
Coastfields Leisure Limited (FRN 413553) is an AR of Arthur J. Gallagher Insurance Brokers Limited (FRN 311786). When you use Coastfields Leisure's services, the FCA authorisation sits with the principal firm.
Example: if you take financial advice from Coastfields Leisure, 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.

This company holds another FCA record

A company can hold several FCA records, covering different parts of its business, and each one carries its own permissions and protection. The reference number you were given decides which record applies to you.

Coastfields Leisure Limited Reference number: 671419 Authorised

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.

Turnover: Money taken from sales in the year, before any costs.
