FSCS declared nine firms in default in June and July 2021

Regular notice that consumers could be in line for compensation 

People who have dealt with any of the nine financial services firms listed below, and believe they are owed money as a result, can now make a claim to the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). 

This vital service, which is free to consumers, protects money held in bank, building society and credit union accounts. It also protects pensions, insurance, investments, mortgage advice and arranging, and debt management.  

James Darbyshire, Chief Counsel at FSCS, said:
“FSCS was set up by Parliament in 2001 and we are here to contribute to financial stability in the UK. For the past 20 years, we have been getting customers of failed authorised financial services firms back on track.

“We are reaching out to let people know that compensation may be available if they have suffered losses due to the failure of a financial services firm. We are a free and independent service and customers can claim directly from us.”

By claiming directly through FSCS, customers pay no fees and get 100 per cent of the compensation that they are owed.

People can also contact FSCS’s Customer Services Team on 0800 678 1100 or 020 7741 4100, or by email at enquiries@fscs.org.uk.
