On 27 April, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) published guidance that sets out what it expects firms to do for customers who are facing temporary payment difficulties due to the exceptional circumstances arising from COVID-19. This includes granting the customer a payment deferral for 3 months on motor finance and leasing payments.

The Government continues to work closely with the FCA and industry on this matter and stand ready to protect consumers wherever it is necessary.
