About Barclays

Barclays has set aside £325 million for motor finance redress. Increased from £90 million following the FCA's consultation paper in October 2025. Barclays stated it disagrees with aspects of the scheme but accepted it, citing a desire for "swift resolution for customers".

No Supreme Court involvement. Accepted the scheme and confirmed it will not challenge.

Current scheme status

Accepted scheme; not challenging.

Honda and motor finance

Honda is a well-established mainstream brand in the UK, known for reliability; consistent finance volumes were written across its range throughout the scheme period.

PCP and HP were both widely used across the Honda range. Honda Finance Europe operated through franchised dealers, with broad market lenders also writing Honda agreements through independent networks.

Honda's UK buyer profile, typically loyalty-driven and value-conscious, meant both PCP and HP were common throughout the scheme period. Average agreement values ranged from approximately £9,000 on a Jazz to £29,000 on a CR-V. Honda Finance Europe operated through franchised dealers, with broad market lenders also active in the network, particularly for used vehicle finance. The mix of PCP and HP across Honda's range means both agreement types may be in scope.

Common Honda models in scope

Honda Civic
Honda's flagship mainstream hatchback and highest-volume UK model; sold on PCP and HP across multiple generations throughout the scheme period.
Honda Jazz
Honda's versatile supermini; consistently sold on both PCP and HP throughout the scheme period, popular with a broad demographic including older buyers.
Honda CR-V
Honda's main SUV offering; sold on PCP through the scheme period with above-average agreement values relative to mainstream competitors.
Honda HR-V
Honda's compact crossover launched in the UK in 2015; predominantly sold on PCP during the latter part of the scheme period.
Honda Accord
Honda's executive saloon sold in the UK until 2015; higher-value agreements in the earlier part of the scheme period may carry above-average commission exposure in eligible cases.

Are you eligible?

You may be eligible to claim against Barclays if all of the following apply:

You took out a PCP or HP motor finance agreement between 6 April 2007 and 1 November 2024.
The finance was arranged through a UK dealer or broker, on a regulated agreement.
The agreement was for a car, van or motorcycle for personal use.
You can identify yourself, we can trace the agreement details on your behalf.

What makes an agreement eligible?

A Discretionary Commission Arrangement (DCA) was in place and was not properly disclosed to you. Under a DCA, the dealer could increase your interest rate to earn a larger commission from the lender without telling you.
The commission paid to the dealer was unusually high — amounting to at least 39% of the total cost of credit and 10% of the loan — and was not properly disclosed.
There was a contractual tie giving the lender exclusivity over your finance, which was not made apparent to you.

What you could receive

The FCA has confirmed the average payout under the scheme is £829 per agreement. Individual outcomes vary depending on the size of your agreement, the commission charged, and how long the finance ran. If you financed more than one vehicle through Barclays, each agreement can be assessed.

Frequently asked questions

Did Barclays use Discretionary Commission Arrangements on Honda finance?

Like most motor finance lenders operating before the FCA ban in January 2021, Barclays Partner Finance operated commission arrangements with dealers. If your Honda finance agreement was arranged through Barclays between 2007 and 2024, there is a real possibility a commission arrangement, including a Discretionary Commission Arrangement, affected the interest rate you were charged.

Which Honda models are covered?

Any Honda agreement financed through Barclays between 2007 and 2024 may be in scope, including models such as Civic, Jazz, CR-V, HR-V and Accord. Eligibility depends on the specific agreement, not the model.

Can I do this myself?

Yes. You can contact your lender directly to make a complaint, or refer your claim to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) yourself for free. The FCA's Consumer Redress Scheme is also designed to be accessible without legal representation.

Will making a claim affect my credit score?

No. Making a claim will not affect your credit score. This is a separate process from your credit history.

Do I need to find old paperwork?

No documents are required to get started. We can trace your finance agreements using basic personal details.

What if my lender has been taken over or has exited the market?

This is common for agreements going back to 2007. If the original lender has been acquired, merged, rebranded, or has exited the market, the successor firm typically inherits liability for historic agreements. We handle this on your behalf.
