Responsible principal firm
WESTFIELD CONTRIBUTORY HEALTH SCHEME LIMITED Reference number: 202609 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.
- West Cheshire and North Wales Chamber of Commerce (FRN 419882) introduces customers to WESTFIELD CONTRIBUTORY HEALTH SCHEME LIMITED (FRN 202609). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not West Cheshire and North Wales Chamber of Commerce.
- Example: if West Cheshire and North Wales Chamber of Commerce refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from West Cheshire and North Wales Chamber of Commerce 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.
