- S Bates, E D Stubbs, N L Clarke & J E McCann (FRN 402043) is an AR of NATIONAL FARMERS UNION MUTUAL INSURANCE SOCIETY LIMITED(THE) (FRN 117664). When you use S Bates, E D Stubbs, N L Clarke & J E McCann's services, the FCA authorisation sits with the principal firm.
- Example: if you take financial advice from S Bates, E D Stubbs, N L Clarke & J E McCann, complaints and compensation usually follow the same rules as dealing with the principal, but this depends on the product and your circumstances.
- 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.
