Responsible principal firm
Financing First Limited Reference number: 720098 View firm →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.
- Perfect Smile Reading Limited (FRN 827048) introduces customers to Financing First Limited (FRN 720098). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not Perfect Smile Reading.
- Example: if Perfect Smile Reading refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from Perfect Smile Reading 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.
