- 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.
- Kent Catering Equipment and Design Limited (FRN 1003686) introduces customers to Complete Leasing Solutions Limited (FRN 683991). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not Kent Catering Equipment and Design.
- Example: if Kent Catering Equipment and Design refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from Kent Catering Equipment and Design 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.

- Cash at bank
