The Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS)
The Financial Ombudsman Services exists to provide consumers with additional complaint support if, at the conclusion of your complaint, you remain dissatisfied. This free service is available to anyone once we have submitted a final response letter or within eight weeks of the date of the complaint, whichever comes sooner.
The scheme exists to provide independent adjudication and an investigation will be undertaken prior to making a decision about outstanding disputes.
The Financial Ombudsman Service can be contacted at:
