I think you would be better compensated if you sold your story to a newspaper.
Based on a true story!
First, I'd suggest you change a few details and make the victim a partially-blind, penniless grandmother living on disability/war widow pension so to make the story much more compelling. Also change the thief to someone Asian or with an Arabic sounding name so they play into the stereotypical villain so beloved of the gutter press and certain news organizations..."Money is truthful. If a person speaks of their honour, make sure they pay in cash."0 -
A staff member commited fraud and the bank gave your money back plus a 10% goodwill gesture.
The FOS would tell you to take a hike. You cannot complain to them anyway as you havent gone through the complaints process. The courts would tell you to get lost as well. Indeed, it would probably be thrown out before even getting there as you have suffered no loss in either name or financial terms.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0
