You complain to the bank.

They have 8 weeks to resolve your complaint. If you are not satisfied you can then raise the complain to the FOS.

That is the official route.

Just to be accurate, the FOS route is an alternative to court action. It is not instead of or in any way 'official'. In some instances, going to Court can be much speedier and more effective than FOS.

In the OP's case - I'm not entirely sure what the problem is and I doubt either the FOS or Court would be particularly interested.

What would you like to sue them for?

Not sure how asking me a question would help me. I asked you a question in the first place!

I'm not sure how suing the Halifax would help anyone other than your solicitor.

I am assuming you mean that it's not a strong case to sue. Is that what you mean indirectly?

Directly I mean the only person who stands to gain anything from your projected court action is your solicitor. It'll just end up costing you a fortune.

Take the Ombudsman route if the Bank fails to rectify their errors.

You haven't lost anything, so how can suing be any form of compensation. I'm not just talking financially.
