V12 Finance FAQ
Once my finance application is approved, what happens next?
Within minutes of your application being approved, you will be presented with the option to sign your credit agreement. If you are offered the ability to e-sign your credit agreement and choose to do so, a PDF of your credit agreement will be displayed on screen. You should read the credit agreement carefully before clicking all the relevant sections agreeing to its terms. Once you have agreed to the terms of the credit agreement seikoboutique.co.uk will be notified. If you are presented with the ability to print and return your credit agreement you should print the PDF agreement, read it carefully and then sign the document following the instructions on the covering letter. This signed document should then be posted to the address shown on the covering letter of the credit agreement.

Will V12 credit score me and if so, what does this mean?
Credit scoring is the process used by financial services companies to evaluate the credit risk of new applicants. This technique will be applied to your application for online finance. Credit scoring works by awarding points for each answer given on the application form such as age, income and occupation, together with information obtained from credit reference agencies. This information allows us to produce consistent decisions, ensuring all our applicants are treated fairly. Credit scoring does not discriminate on the grounds of sex, race, religion or disability.
If V12 decline my application, what is the reason?
In addition to credit scoring, V12 Finance also take into account the confirmation of your identity, validation of certain application details, existing commitments and information held at the credit reference agencies. Though we are unable to provide you with a main reason why your application was declined, it is usually based on one, or a combination of the following:
- Your credit score (note that every finance company will score you differently)
- Adverse credit reference agency information
- You are considered to be overcommitted
- You are aged under 18
- Your existing account performance with other lenders
What type of information do credit reference agencies hold about me?
Some of the information is public information, for example electoral roll, County Court Judgements and bankruptcies. Other lenders may also file information about accounts you hold with them for instance this could include your payment history and outstanding balance on these accounts. Any requests for credit, where a credit reference search has been undertaken, will also be filed, although the result of the request is not recorded.
If my finance application is not successful, can I re-apply?
Yes. We acknowledge that your circumstances change and just because V12 refused a previous application, it does not mean that they will automatically turn down a further request. We do suggest however, that you leave at least 6 months between applications.
Who is eligible to apply for online finance?
To apply for finance, you must be over the age of 18, work at least 16 hours a week, or be retired with an income. You must also be a resident of the UK and have lived in the UK for the last 36 months or more. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer online finance to residents of Eire.
Can I request delivery to an address other than my home?
To safeguard against fraudulent applications, we regret that we’re only able to deliver goods to the home address of the applicant. Alternatively, you can choose to collect your order from our Grand Seiko boutique.
Can I purchase multiple watches at the same time with Interest Free Credit?
Items need to be purchased individually with V12 Finance, so that the payment plan can be applied to each item separately.
Will my item be reserved until my finance application has been processed?
Yes, your item will be reserved for you until a decision has been made by V12 finance on your application.
