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.
  • Plusnet Plc (FRN 815484) introduces customers to Salary Finance Limited (FRN 758053). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not Plusnet.
  • Example: if Plusnet refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from Plusnet 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.
