Treating customers fairly: Principle 6 requires brokers to treat customers fairly and with respect – paying interest to their needs and circumstances. Principle 7 requires brokers to be clear with customers, ensuring that they communicate in an easy to understand manner which is not misleading in any way. For example, brokers should ensure that their charging policy is simple and accessible.
Authorisation and consent: CONC 2.5 prohibits brokers from taking a fee for their services without authorisation from the customer first. If a fee is due, it should be explained and make clear to the customer as early in the process as possible.
Sharing of personal information: CONC 2.5 also prohibits brokers from sharing customers’ private data, including payment information, to third parties without the consent of the customer. This would breach the Data Protection Act.
Advertising and marketing: CONC 3.3 requires all financial marketing to be simple, clear and straightforward. Customers must not be mis-led by brokers who claim to be a lender when this is not the case.
Transparency of status: CONC 3.7 requires brokers to make it expressly clear in any marketing or customer facing documentation their status – ensuring their powers and the type of service they provide is clear. They must also outline the nature of any links with lenders that they have.
Transparency of fees and commissions: CONC 4.4 deals with fee disclosure and CONC 4.5 with commission disclosure. Any fee which is due from the customer must be made clear at the outset and agreed in writing before any agreement is signed. Information must be disclosed about how and when the fee is due.
Refunds: Section 155 of the Consumer Credit Act entitles the customer to a refund (less £5) of any brokerage fee, if a credit agreement is not entered into within six months of an introduction to a source of credit, and CONC 6.8 provides guidance on this. A broker should respond promptly to any request for a refund.
