Watch out for businesses claiming to be ACT service partners

Posted on in Business News , Cycles News

We have been made aware of a number of card processing companies calling stores claiming to be working with the Association of Cycle Traders (ACT).

The ACT would like to make it clear at present we are not working with any card processing provider.

We are in the processes of contacting the business directly but please do email the ACT on info@theact.org.uk if you have been approached or are concerned.

All ACT partners are carefully vetted and approved to ensure that we always offer the best for our members. If you are ever in doubt about one of our service partners please check our website, send us an email or give us a call on 01273 427 700.

In other exciting news, we are in advanced talks with two possible card processing providers who are looking to offer ACT members an excellent deal - more information to be announced soon!
