Hi eveyone,

Video: Car Finance vs Dieselgate - TWO SEPARATE ISSUES, don't get confused!

Join a Claim: Check if your old diesel cars are eligible for £000's compensation each from the ongoing High Court Diesel-gate trials

So there has been some confusion around the separation of dieselgate and car finance. It doesn't help when news sources like The Independent are posting articles about dieselgate but adding videos from Martin Lewis talking about car finance compensation, these are two completely separate issues!

I've done a 7-minute video that I think gives a decent overview of everything you need to know about the two separate cases, what you should be doing to ensure you get the right compensation and whether you can get compensation for both (first link above). Please take the time to watch the full video, there are important details near the end of the video. 

I've also included a link above for you to check if any of your old diesel cars are eligible to join the claims. There are still loads of you joining up, so I'll keep posting this link until the sign-ups fade away or until the sign-up deadline is reached!

Thanks all,

Richard Winstone
The Regulator Guy.
