What we do for you

We look at everything you’ve provided to us to work out whether your claim meets our criteria for us to represent you

We will complain to your bank or the responsible bank on your behalf

If we are unhappy with their response, we take your claim to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) 

What we need you to do

  • Tell us if the bank contacts you directly after we have contacted them, especially if it’s regarding the outcome of your complaint and you receive a rejection, offer or full refund so we can help you with your next steps

  • Tell us if your name, address, email address or other contact details change
