Appalling and Aggressive customer service who will not help you at all. Made 1 late final payment and they made my account into default although I paid the final account in full. Motonovo’s explanation is that it was in process to be sent out to a collections agency although a default notice was not issued or any warning letters to suggest this. Now my credit score has been afftected by this. DO NOT get a loan from Motonovo. They do not care about you as the customer.

I am a key worker who needs a vehicle for my job. In current COVID-19 pandemic I need to work more than ever. I accept COVID-19 has changed how everything works but after a 500mile road test I have now been told there is no timescale my complaints handler can give me as to when this whole fiasco will be resolved, despite the mechanic (who was unable to give the report outcome, knew I was a key worker and shared I should start to look for a new vehicle as my current vehicle is not fit for purpose!) I have found a new car, put a holding deposit down and could collect at the weekend, allowing me to finally own a reliable vehicle after being messed about with Evans Hallshaw Nottingham since January, and now motonovo since 17th March 2020! This is now all at risk as motonovo are taking so long to 'quality assure' a report from 2 managers. This wait is rediculous... I have now been offered a hire car, but the excesses are insane (upto £1000) and I cannot afford to risk that. All I want is a car which is fit for purpose... Motonovo surely you can read a report quicker than 5 working days given the circumstances?!!!

Officious, threatening phone calls every couple of weeks. At a time when banks and other companies are going out of their way to be compassionate towards their customers, these people are creating misery. MotoNovo is a company of loan sharks and charlatans and they will make your life hell. Avoid them like the coronavirus.

Avoid at all costs. Motonovo amend contracts and claim you signed electronically to rip you off and then ignore complaints!

Think very carefully before financing anything such as a car with this company. Yes....you can get finance easily if you need a car in a hurry but make no mistake; This is expensive money to borrow. I had to repay £831.02 in interest on a £7000 loan, which I repaid back over a 5 month period. There was no satisfaction in repaying early as there was no savings to be made by doing this as there would have been with a bank. You would be much better and it would be much cheaper to take a little bit of time and take out a personal bank loan through a bank to finance a car rather than use Motonovo as the interest would have been far far less. I was under pressure at the time to replace my car and I didn't give it enough thought but I deeply regret using this company as I was a fool not to go to a bank first. So be warned , Think carefully and don't be seduced by not having to make a repayment for the first two months . Nothing in life is free. This type of finance is for fools. It comes with a very hefty cost.

Having given reduced payments for 2 months, things got better in the household as we had more income. Not a great deal but enough to pay the monthly contract with a little spare to pay the arrears. Went through calls to get an arrangement setup to take care of the arrears in a reasonable time. However this proved extremely stressful and as of yet is not in place. Instead question of how much electricity is used in the house and how much we spend on birthdays were given back to us. Seemed like the idea scenario from motonovo point of view would be to cancel the contract and remove the car.

You'd be crazy to go with this company. My account with them is up to date but they send dozens of text messages each day saying the account is not up to date and threatening to destroy my credit file. They just want vulnerable people to fall for it so they pay more. They claim system issues if you call them up on it. I have sent my complaint about them to the Financial Ombudsman. I would strongly recommend you don't use them.

My husband brought a van with Motonovo finance, we were late with one payment & have had numerous phone calls texts a day , not to mention the stack of letters ! . When my husband has spoken to them on the phone to try & sort it out , the representative’s are rude & aggressive. They are not interested in anything you have to say , they just threaten you that your vehicle will be taken. We are over three years in on a five year payment plan & have struggled with one payment. We feel very harassed by the amount pressure they put on to you , it’s crazy . It’s like having some dodgy loan shark on your back ! . I strongly advise anyone never to use this company ever .

They incorrectly sold the wrong car finance deal to me - instead of correcting the issue it has been dragged through the Financial Ombudsman Service for over a year now - The FO have now unheld my complaint and agree that MotoNovo were unfair in their handling of the complaint and how they completed their finance deal

It is mafia. They will take your car, sell it on auction for 20% value and request outstanding payments plus. No will to help. Avoid.
