When advice goes wrong, most people have no idea whether anyone else has raised the same concern. The ombudsman’s published decisions are one of the few places you can actually look. This is the record for Glyn Hopkin Limited.
There are 10 published decisions, 7 of which were upheld. They run from 10 July 2014 to 23 July 2019, and concern banking and credit, payment protection insurance (ppi). If you are looking into a Glyn Hopkin claim of your own, or researching how a PPI or insurance complaint against the dealership might work, the published record is a useful place to start.

An upheld decision means the ombudsman agreed with that consumer in that individual case. It does not by itself mean any other complaint will succeed, and every case turns on its own facts.
A word on names
The ombudsman publishes the name of the business a complaint was made against, but not its company number or FCA reference. Business names are not unique, so we have deliberately not attached company records or regulatory histories to this business that we could not verify beyond doubt as belonging to it. If you dealt with a business of this name and want to know whether these decisions concern the same one, ask us and we will check properly.
What to do if this sounds familiar
Where a business is still trading and regulated, a complaint starts with the business itself, which has up to eight weeks to give its final response. If that does not resolve matters you can take it to the Financial Ombudsman Service, which is free and independent, and this is how a Glyn Hopkin compensation claim would normally proceed, normally within six months of that response. Court action is the alternative, but it can be costly, and a claim above £10,000 carries the risk of paying the other side’s costs. If the business has stopped trading, the Financial Services Compensation Scheme becomes the route instead.
