Temporary pause on accepting new finance proposals while we make changes to our processes.

We have temporarily paused accepting new finance proposals following a recent Court of Appeal decision regarding the payment of commission from lenders to motor dealers (credit intermediaries). As a result of this decision, we need to make changes to our processes so that we continue to provide the highest level of service and transparency to our customers.

This change is temporary and only impacts new finance proposals. If you are an existing customer of Blue, you are not impacted by this pause.

We remain committed to our lending in the Motor Finance sector and we will be open for new finance proposals very shortly.
