Enforcing Financial Ombudsman decision

RowanL

I received a Financial Ombudsman's decision - in my favour - against a debt management company that at the time was still live on the Companies House website. However, during the FO process, the company ignored all correspondence.

However, this decision was over 2 years ago, and I have yet to find a way to enforce this decision and receive the compensation owed to me. I contacted the FCA, Citizens Advise and the FO directly over the last 2 years - all referred me to one of the others. No authority had any advice, now the companies house website states it dissolved Jan 2018.

I read I could take it to the company's county court, but I have no idea or the money to do this. It's an upsetting situation that I would like the money I overpaid such a long time ago now and I cannot find a way to fight this.

Is this covered by the FSCS, I have a bad feeling this is too old and I'm never going to get the money the FO confirmed I'm entitled too.

Please advise if there is positive news and if I could start a claim (I have the FO letters stating the monetary compensation that is due to me).

The minute a company goes insolvent, the FOS decision becomes worthless. You have to start all over again with the FSCS.
