Today, we’ve published data that shows how many complaints we received about financial businesses in the first half of 2023.
The Financial Ombudsman Service is a free and easy-to-use service that settles complaints between consumers and businesses that provide financial services. We resolve disputes fairly and impartially, and have the power to put things right.
