What does this mean?
  • An introducer appointed representative can only pass your details to its principal firm. It cannot recommend products, give financial advice, or arrange deals on its own.
  • DFT Media Limited (FRN 599228) introduces customers to Policy Link Limited (FRN 916480). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not DFT Media.
  • Example: if DFT Media refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from DFT Media itself.
  • Before you proceed, confirm contact details match the official FCA register for both firms. Scammers sometimes clone legitimate AR names and FRNs but use fake phone numbers and websites.
