How to complain, and in what order
Where a firm is still trading and still regulated, the complaint starts with the firm itself. It is only fair that a business is given the opportunity to resolve the matter before anyone else becomes involved, and the rules are built that way. You raise the complaint directly with the firm, and it has up to eight weeks to look into it and give you its final response.
If that response does not resolve things to your satisfaction, or the eight weeks pass without one, two options are open to you.
The first is legal action through the courts. It is a genuine option, but it can be costly. A claim above £10,000 falls outside the small claims track, which means costs can follow the outcome, and you could be exposed to paying the other side’s legal costs if the case does not go your way.
The second, and for most people the more logical first step, is the Financial Ombudsman Service. It is free to consumers, it is independent of the firm, and it can direct a business to pay redress where it decides a complaint should be upheld. You normally have six months from the date of the firm’s final response to refer the matter to the ombudsman.
Wider time limits apply as well. Broadly you have six years from the event, or three years from when you reasonably ought to have known there was a problem, so it is worth getting a view sooner rather than later.
