About Black Horse

Black Horse has set aside £1.95 billion for motor finance redress. Lloyds confirmed in April 2026 it does not anticipate needing to make further provisions following PS26/3, though this could shift depending on consumer uptake and any separate litigation.

Named prominently throughout the FCA review. Lloyds confirmed in April 2026 it will not challenge the scheme. Black Horse is widely regarded as one of the lenders with the highest DCA exposure in the market given the scale of its book.

Black Horse is the UK's largest motor finance lender and is considered to have had significant DCA exposure across its book during the period before the FCA ban in January 2021.

Current scheme status

Accepting scheme; not challenging. Preparing for implementation.

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 Black Horse 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 Black Horse, each agreement can be assessed.

Frequently asked questions

Did Black Horse use Discretionary Commission Arrangements on Honda finance?
Black Horse is the UK's largest motor finance lender and operated Discretionary Commission Arrangements across a significant portion of its book before the FCA banned the practice in January 2021. If your Honda finance agreement was arranged through Black Horse before that date, there is a real possibility a DCA was applied, meaning the dealer could have increased your interest rate to earn a higher commission without your knowledge.
Which Honda models are covered?
Any Honda agreement financed through Black Horse 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.
