Since 1999 Advantage Finance have provided straight forward hire purchase finance for new and used cars, vans, motorcycles and caravans.
They provide hire purchase agreements up to £15,000 with repayment terms designed to suit your budget.
They pride themselves on providing responsible and affordable credit based on assessments of financial circumstances. With a straightforward application process, most in-principal decisions can be provided within a few minutes.
One of the UK’s leading providers of specialist motor finance products they operate from their office in Grimsby, employing over 160 people and in 2020 they processed over 1.4 million finance applications.
So as we grew as a company the IT side of things grew as well, but it was clear to us we needed some help. We wanted to have someone that would understand what Advantage was about, to understand that we didn’t want to pass everything over to them to manage, but to work alongside us.
Although we do everything ourselves we need help. Users call us in our own company for a help but we don’t know the answers to everything. The fact that we can ring the help desk and speak to a particular person (Oliver), what I like about that is that you’re not having to repeat things so Oliver knows us
he understands the network.

One of the main areas that we’re quite often reviewing is is the arena of cyber security. We’ve got
a massive responsibility with customer’s data, customer’s finance agreements. we’ve got a huge responsibility to staff to protect them and we also got a huge responsibility to the business.Advantage, as a business with the support of HBP, the investments we’ve made all the hardware that’s been installed do prevent them attacks and that is one of the key things that we’ve done over the years with HBP.
Nick Greenside, IT Operations Director at Advantage Finance.
We don’t want to be waiting hours days for someone to get back to us we want someone to say
“Don’t panic, I’ll sort it.”
