Hi, I had a PCP on a ford taken out in 2020, following MSE advise i forwarded the MSE email onto Ford who eventually came back to me basically saying they couldn't say either way if i had had a finance agreement with them and i had 6 months to complain to the Ombudsman from Fords email otherwise the finance Ombudsman wouldn't have Fords permission to consider my complaint.
I need to sort this in the next week if i am to forward my complaint onto the ombudsman.
My question is has anyone else received this sort or email and do i need to contact the ombudsman ?

DCA complaints are suspended at the moment and the FOS will not look at them until the FCA review has been completed. The good news is that the 6 month timebar has also been suspended as well. So, Ford Credit cannot enforce the standard 6 months. (I assume you mean Ford Credit rather than Ford - although if you sent it to Ford rather than Ford Credit then it may explain why they cant find it).
You could also give Ford Credit a copy of the agreement or statements etc from your own files. That will help them trace it.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.1 -

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.

This is very recent so you can get the evidence from your bank statements that you paid this finance.0
