Well good job I did open it, otherwise I would never have know how unfairly I've been treated. I will persue this matter with the FOS,
As I said earlier, the only valid complaint you appear to have is that the Bank sent you a letter intended for someone else.
How much (or even how little) another complainant was awarded has absolutely no relevance to your complaint I'm afraid. The Ombudsman can't change this fact.

You haven't been treated unfairly, someone else with different circumstances has been refunded, their situation is irrelevant to yours. Intentionally opening mail you know is not for you is very dodgy ground, if it could be proven you intended to gain from reading some else's mail you can be prosecutedSam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:
People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.
