Bank indemnity and Bankruptcy

Danielford99

So, I was conned in to sending some money as an online investment. Within 2 weeks I smelt a rat - no responses to emails or calls.

I called my bank and did an indemnity based on fraud. My bank Lloyds sent an indemnity claim to the recipients bank. They confirmed my funds were there and the account had been frozen - great I thought.

Fast forward a week and the individual has filed for bankruptcy. The receiver bank have been helpful and have bacially told me to contact the official receiver.

So my question - should I be legally entitled to my funds back as I made the indemnity claim prior to the bakruptcy or should I expect my funds to just be thrown in to the pot with all the other creditors?

Where do I stand?
