    I’m not sure who donates to who but as a person donating to a charity I would expect my money to go to that Charity as in If I donate to guide dogs for the blind I would stop donating if I found my money was then being donated by that charity to another charity as that would be sharp practice and risks further support from disgruntled donors just like the WWF instead we don’t “ adopt an animal” to raise funds we “adopt a car for three years” to raise funds

    Exactly. The organisations that they donate to are all for the benefit of disabled people, but I maintain that this is still wrong. We have never been asked whether we are happy for a proportion of our contributions towards our Motability cars to be onwardly donated to a third party. I’m guessing that given a choice, most would prefer lower APs. It wouldn’t make a huge difference, but there’s a principal at stake here, especially in a climate where AP prices are through the roof and many Motability customers are struggling to make ends meet.
