I am having this same issue here with the porch dealer. They are refusing to put me as the registered keeper and I even referred them to this thread. They are stating because it is finance, the finance company need the owner to be the registered keeper therefore that they cannot do it.Yep all sorted, invoice in Company name, myself as registered keeper and car is brilliant .
Sorry to hear your having a challenge also. Mine was a cash purchase and so it was just down to the group policy.I am having this same issue here with the porch dealer.

In the end I went down the same route as you did with a cash purchase. I was 50/50 between cash and HP however their group policy wouldn’t allow me as the registered keeper. I had several calls and in the end they agreed if I went cash they would allow it. With the £500-£600 increase in insurance it made my mind up to just go down the cash purchase route.Sorry to hear your having a challenge also.

It is probably worth a call to the finance company to get their view on it as it did make a difference to the insurance quotes.
The log book is registered to the company address but I will change that to the home address as they where refusing to change the address. I believe changing address won’t make any difference to number of owners for the vehicle so I can do that afterwards.Are you also registering it to your home or company address?
thanks, I’ve told them to register it to home address.The log book is registered to the company address but I will change that to the home address as they where refusing to change the address.

It is a little frustrating that the different dealer groups appear to have different policies regarding the V5 but glad you have got it sorted.The log book is registered to the company address but I will change that to the home address as they where refusing to change the address.
