  • JPLC Limited (FRN 1046454) is an AR of ANIMAL FRIENDS INSURANCE SERVICES LIMITED (FRN 307858). When you use JPLC's services, the FCA authorisation sits with the principal firm.
  • Example: if you take financial advice from JPLC, complaints and compensation usually follow the same rules as dealing with the principal, but this depends on the product and your circumstances.

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.

About these figures
Turnover
Money taken from sales in the year, before any costs.
Profit before tax
What was left after the year’s costs, before corporation tax. A minus figure is a loss.
Net assets, or total equity

Total assets and total liabilities

Cash at bank
