Your Rights
If you’re not happy with our response to your complaint, or if we’ve not responded to you after eight weeks, you may be able to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) – depending on when your account was funded and the type of credit we supplied, you may be entitled to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS). They mediate on behalf of customers and financial services firms that can’t reach an agreement.
We’ll let you know if we believe the FOS can review your complaint when we send you either our final response, or confirmation that we’ll not be able to respond within eight weeks.
If you wish to contact them directly, you can find more information about FOS referral rights by visiting financial-ombudsman.org.uk. Alternatively, the FOS can be contacted by telephone on 0800 023 4567, by email at complaint.info@financial-ombudsman.org.uk, or by letter at: The Financial Ombudsman Service, Exchange Tower, London, E14 9SR.

How long will it take for my complaint to be resolved?
We aim to respond to complaints as quickly as possible. Naturally, some complaints will take longer to resolve than others. Rest assured, we'll keep you up to date with how things are going.
How do I make a complaint about PPI?
The Financial Conduct Authority's deadline for complaints about the mis-selling of PPI passed on 29th August 2019. However, we may still be able to deal with your complaint in exceptional circumstances. Other complaints about PPI not relating to mis-selling (e.g. complaints about rejected claims on live PPI policies, or about administrative matters not connected to the sale) will be handled as normal. Please get in touch using the details provided above if you'd like to discuss this further.
