- 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.
- The Hive Efficiency Group Damp Proofing Ltd (FRN 971073) introduces customers to PHOENIX FINANCIAL CONSULTANTS LIMITED (FRN 539195). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not The Hive Efficiency Group Damp Proofing.
- Example: if The Hive Efficiency Group Damp Proofing refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from The Hive Efficiency Group Damp Proofing 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.

- Money in the company’s accounts on the last day of the year.
