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.
  • Kevin Mitchell (FRN 984166) introduces customers to Distinct Funeral Plans Limited (FRN 965289). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not Kevin Mitchell.
  • Example: if Kevin Mitchell refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from Kevin Mitchell itself.

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.
