  • A final response letter explaining the outcome of our investigation, the reason for our decision and information on the steps to take, should you remain dissatisfied; or
  • A holding letter confirming when we anticipate we will have concluded our investigation.

Referring to the Financial Ombudsman Service:
Should you remain dissatisfied with the outcome of our investigation or we are unable to conclude our investigation within eight (8) weeks, you may be able to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service (*if eligible), provided you do so within six (6) months of the date of the Final Response.
