  • Shamrock - FOS told me last week that they will now look at claims pre 2005 regardless of GISC membership. So not sure what is going on there then! I have claims pre 2005 with Black Horse and Welcome, neither had GISC membership at the time of my loans.

    This is why I say they will maybe look into it cause some are told one thing and others another. Seems it depends who you talk to. :confused:

    and further to that Shamrock, FOS have taken on mine as well which is pre GISC. The are looking at the Insurance underwriter route which of course was subject to the ABI code. Similar rules to the FSA/FOS/GISC.

    Fingers crossed this bears fruit.
    If you see a penny, pick it up, all day long you'll have good luck !!!!!! :D

    Hi guys this is my letter I've drafted to resubmit to the FOS,


    Dear Sir/Madam,


    I received my letter back regarding the fact that Welcome Finance were not regulated through GISC at time of my loan.


    This means unfortunately you can’t deal with my complaint. They really are giving me a hard time and I was totally missold my whole PPI and the medical insurance. Unfortunately at that time I believed I had to do this and really needed the cash.


    I was wondering if you could possibly look into my complaint the following way by looking at the Insurance underwriter route which of course was subject to the ABI code. Similar rules to the FSA/FOS/GISC.


    I know it may not be possible but I would be so grateful if you could look into this as I ironically only missed the regulation date by 3 weeks. I have popped my case back in with this and totally understand should it not be possible. I realise Court may be the only option as they won’t even discuss this with me at Welcome. It’s so unfair and infuriating,



    Kind Regards

    Hi guys,
    Thought Id give you an update on the WF debacle. Thanks to barloo69 I may have a glimmer of hope with FOS. I spoke to a helpful gentleman at the FOS today who suggested I phone Welcome to name their underwriters. After the wrong info first time round as I was given the brokers name, Direct Group I then called back and was told that the underwriters were Aviva/Norwich Union and I have let the FOS know.
    The Compliance department at Welcome didn't answer the phone for 3 hours today and they are mostly rude and cant be bothered when they do in my experience.
    Hopefully I will make some progress..........thanks to all
