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.
  • VINTTRO LTD (FRN 1031256) introduces customers to Woodstone Funding Limited (FRN 670464). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not VINTTRO.
  • Example: if VINTTRO refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from VINTTRO 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.

Same company

This company holds another FCA record

A company can hold several FCA records, covering different parts of its business, and each one carries its own permissions and protection. The reference number you were given decides which record applies to you.

Identity

Check their details

Compare these against whatever you were given. Scammers clone real firm names and reference numbers but use their own phone number and website, so a detail that does not match the register is the clearest warning sign there is.
