OFT to meet credit hire firms next week

The Office of Fair Trading (OFT) will meet with several credit hire firms next week as part of its probe into rising motor premiums.

Members of The Credit Hire Organisation, Helphire, Ai Claims, Accident Exchange and Drive Assist will attend.

Last December the OFT launched an investigation into the provision of third party vehicle repairs and credit hire replacement vehicles to motor accident claimants.
