Please use this form to tell us about your complaint – so we can help resolve it. If you’re not sure about anything, or have difficulties filling in this form, just phone us on 0800 023 4567. Please note all calls with our casework teams are recorded. If you have agreed to make this complaint on behalf of someone else, you will need to ask them to sign and date this form in the declaration section below. If they are unable to do this for any reason, please let us know.

You will usually find this on communication from the business, such as letters or emails. Please type it here exactly as it shows on their communications

As mentioned, we can only look into complaints where you've received a final response letter from the business you're complaining about. Or where the business hasn't responded to you within our stated time limits. If you submit a complaint to us before this, we won't be able to get involved and it will take us a lot longer to progress your complaint.

If it has been longer than six months since you received a final response from the business, you are likely out of time to refer the complaint to our service, unless this was as a result of exceptional circumstances. See our time limits page for more information.

• Final Response Letter from the business, or evidence of an email or letter to show you have complained to the business more than 8 weeks ago
• Policy documents (if applicable)
• Finance agreement (if applicable)
• Grant of Probate (if the customer has passed away)
• Power of Attorney (if applicable)
• Any other documented evidence you can provide which you feel is relevant to your case

Our privacy notice sets out how you can expect us to use your personal information when you use our service.

Finally, please agree to this declaration. By signing below, you are agreeing to it.

"I would like the Financial Ombudsman Service to look into my complaint. I confirm to the best of my knowledge everything I have told you is correct."

* If you’re complaining on behalf of a business, charity or trust, please provide your job title.

For complaints involving accounts or policies held jointly, we usually need each person to provide their names above – and we may share details about the complaint with both signatories. Please tell us if there’s any reason this might be a problem for you.
If you have agreed to make this complaint on someone else’s behalf, you will need to ask them to sign and date this form in the space above. You will need to add your own details where prompted below.
