    Consider that a result.

    So after nearly 2 weeks of waiting for a letter from there compliance officer , and although they have reluctlenty agreed to give me compensation athough they think they were deceived in parting with my info by my ex to add insult to injury the letter i receive today has all my correct detail in the header and then starts
    Dear crook ?
    So are they being funny ? i find it insulting i have emailed the MD who has relied saying it was a name error they have similar compliant with another client .
    I say i find this hard to accept and think they are being funny ! i then get a email back from the compliance officer saying there have a customer called Crock and they used the template letter to me and didnt change his name to mine ? But the letter was to Crook not Crock ?
    Am i being unreasonabe or do you think this company is totally inept and how would you proceed if you were me ?
    Its Slanderous and insulting for one ?
    I never asked this company to contact me and until i got the phone call out of the blue to say they had discussed my pensions with out my knowledge i didnt know they existed ! now i just iinfuriated by there total lack of professionalism

    What would you do next ?
    Advice on a postcard ?

    I would take the £200 and consider transferring your business elsewhere.
