Question Time: I got £5k back after calling the pod! Can I move a loan to a 0% card? Claim car finance comp for dead relative?

In this episode of The Martin Lewis Podcast, host Martin Lewis tackles a listener question from Jonathan in Portsmouth regarding how to make a car finance claim on behalf of his deceased father. Jonathan, supported by his stepmother, seeks guidance on navigating the FCA's mass redress scheme for PCP and HP agreements between April 2007 and November 2024, which may have been missold. Martin explains that while the process is more complex when the individual has passed away, it is still possible for executors or primary beneficiaries to access the deceased’s financial data via Equifax by submitting a formal request with supporting documents like a death certificate and proof of authority. He emphasizes the importance of filing a complaint directly, as it streamlines the process and increases chances of compensation. Martin also shares behind-the-scenes insights into the podcast’s production, including the recording of live intros and the use of pre-recorded segments. The episode concludes with a fun audience vote to name the podcast’s contributors, with 'Esquires' winning over 'MPC' and 'NPCs' by a margin of 110 to 66 votes. Martin celebrates the result with mock fanfare, announcing a new intro script and badge system for future contributors.
