What is a complaint?

Any oral or written expression of dissatisfaction, whether justified or not, from, or on behalf of, a person about the provision of, or failure to provide, a financial service, which:

(1) alleges that the complainant has suffered (or may suffer) financial loss, material distress or material inconvenience and

(2) relates to an activity of that respondent, or of any other respondent with whom that respondent has some connection in marketing or providing financial services or products, which comes under the jurisdiction of the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) in the UK.

When to expect a response

The Lloyd’s underwriter or their representative will aim to provide you with a response within 14 days of the complaint being received. If this is not possible, the Lloyd’s underwriter may ask for an extension of 2 weeks to continue their investigation and if you are happy with this there is nothing you need to do.

Lloyds Review

If you are not happy with the outcome of your complaint you can contact us to request an independent review.

If for any reason you don’t receive a decision from the Lloyd’s underwriter within 4 weeks, we will automatically escalate your complaint to our complaints team for an independent review. We will let you know if this happens and aim to provide you with the final response within the regulatory deadline. The deadline will be included in our acknowledgement.


Escalating your complaint

If you are unhappy with the outcome in the final response, you may be able to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service. You will need to do this within 6 months of receiving the final response.
