    Your case was reviewed by an ombudsman and rejected.

    Even if the FCA review some of the adjudicators (which was what the programme was about) there is no reason for them to look at the ombudsman decisions.
    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.

    Thanks for your post :)
    I appreciate your input and it may also be that I was mislead by the adjudicator and that has made matters worse for me.:(
    I accept that its probably going nowhere, but I was lead to believe for months that it was a positive outcome and then suddenly it wasn't!

    Ask them about Plevin and see if you were affected

    Sam 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.
