Financial Ombudsman Service

 

The Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) provides independent complaint resolution when the complaints process within businesses fails to resolve a customer’s complaint. In general, the FOS will require complainants to have addressed themselves to the business in the first instance and only address the complaint to the FOS if this fails to produce a resolution. Consequently, if you do have a complaint please let us know first.

 

If we have failed to resolve your complaint through our own process within eight weeks and you wish to take the matter up with the FOS, we will provide you with information on how to do so. Further information on the FOS can be found on their website.
