The Claimant sought relief under sections 75 and/or 56 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 for the alleged misrepresentation of a supplier in selling solar panels to the Claimant. The alleged representation related to the performance of the panels. The Defendant funded the purchase by a debtor-creditor-supplier agreement within the meaning of section 12 of the 1974 Act and hence had a statutory liability for losses caused by any misrepresentation by the supplier.
