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.
  • LIGHTFOOTS FUNERAL SERVICES LIMITED (FRN 985862) introduces customers to Golden Charter Limited (FRN 965279). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not LIGHTFOOTS FUNERAL SERVICES.
  • Example: if LIGHTFOOTS FUNERAL SERVICES refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from LIGHTFOOTS FUNERAL SERVICES 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.
