If you don’t find the answer to your question please get in touch and we’ll be happy to help.
Yes, you absolutely can lease a car with a bad credit history – especially with us at Compass Vehicle Services.
Unlike traditional leasing companies, we don’t base our decisions on your credit score. Instead, we look at your current financial situation, focusing on affordability and stability. If you can comfortably afford the monthly payments, we’ll do our best to get you approved.
We’ve been helping people with poor or no credit history get behind the wheel for over 20 years. Our team takes the time to understand your unique circumstances and find a leasing option that works for you – no judgment, just real support.
If you have never had a loan or taken out credit we understand you won’t have any credit history.
Demonstrate to us that you can afford the lease payments, and we can help you lease a vehicle with no credit.
You will need to supply us with bank statements and proof of employment.
A credit check is required to comply with the Financial Conduct Authority and anti-fraud regulations.
We only perform a credit check once we have pre-approved your car leasing application.
We check your credit file to confirm your address, and we are not looking at your credit score.
We welcome customers with individual voluntary arrangements (IVAs). We look at your current financial situation and whether you can afford the payments rather than using your credit score.
We welcome applications from customers who have County Court Judgments (CCJs). We look at your current financial situation and whether you can afford the payments to make a decision, and not your credit score.
We welcome applications from customers who are bankrupt or who have been discharged from bankruptcy. We look at your current financial situation and whether you can afford the payments, not your credit score.
If you can satisfy 2 key requirements then you qualify to lease a car:
Are you traceable? It is not simply a question of whether you are on the electoral roll. It helps, but we will not discount an individual if they are not on the electoral roll. We consider a number of other issues such as how long you have been living in your home (you do not need to own it) and how long you have been in your current employment/self-employment.
Can you afford the payments? We review your last three months bank statements to assess whether you are able to afford the monthly payments. We do not use any credit scoring methods.
Once you have completed your application for personal or business contract hire, we will ask you to supply some supporting documentation which is usually:
Proof of Identification – Copy of your valid driver’s licence
Proof of Income – Pay slips and bank statements for the last 3 months. If self-employed instead of pay slips please provide your
HMRC SA302 form confirming your latest tax calculation
Proof of Address – You can verify your address by providing a UK utility bill (gas, electricity, water, telephone landline) issued within 3 months. The name and address on the bill must match those in the lease application.
Your lease includes a standard mileage allowance of 12,000 miles per year, Vehicle Excise Duty (road tax), the manufacturer’s warranty, and flexible leasing terms tailored to your needs. You’ll also benefit from personalised support throughout your lease. Need more miles? Additional mileage options are available on request.
