At Porsche Financial Services we understand that life can take unexpected turns and anyone can experience financial hardship due to unforeseen circumstances. We are committed to assisting you with finding a suitable solution to manage your repayments, whilst you get back on your feet.
Financial Hardship is when a customer is willing and has the intention to pay, but due to a change in their circumstances, is now unable to meet their repayments or existing financial obligations. With formal hardship assistance, their financial situation will be restored.
How long is the assistance period?
Our Financial Hardship Department will assess your individual situation and provide options. This may be short term and in some cases long periods of time dependent on your situation.
What kind of support documents do I need?
Each situation is assessed on its own merits. You may need to provide further information such as proof of income, liabilities, expenditure and anything that is applicable to your circumstances.
How long will it take to receive a response?
We are required to provide you with an outcome or next steps within 21 days of you submitting your application. However, in most cases you will receive a response sooner.
Will I still be contacted by the Collections Department whilst assistance is in place?
No, there will be no collections activity during this period as long as you comply with your hardship arrangement.
What happens if Porsche Financial Services does not support my request for Financial Hardship?
We will advise you in writing of the reason. You may wish to seek further financial advice from a financial advisor or a third party in regards to the alternate options that may be available to you.
What happens if I am not satisfied with the outcome?
