Making a complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) does not affect the insured s rights under this policy but if the insured is not an eligible complainant then the informal complaint process ceases. A summary of the insurer s complaint handling procedure is available on request and will also be provided to the insured when acknowledging a complaint. 7.2 About the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) 7.2.1 Eligible complainants are: a) private individuals; b) micro-enterprises. Micro-enterprises will be able to bring complaints to the ombudsman as long as they have an annual turnover of under EUR2 million and fewer than ten (10) employees. c) charities with an annual income of less than GBP1million; or d) a trustee of a trust with net assets of less than GBP1million. 7.2.2 The FOS will only consider a complaint if the insured is an eligible complainant and if: a) the insurer has been given an opportunity to resolve it and b) the insurer has sent the insured a final response letter and the insured has referred its complaint to the FOS within six (6) months of the insurer s final response letter or c) the insurer has not responded to the insured s complaint with a decision within eight (8) weeks. 7.3 Financial Services Compensation Scheme The Company Market and Lloyd s underwriters are covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme. The insured may be entitled to compensation from the Scheme if the insurer is unable to meet its obligations under this contract. Entitlement to compensation under the Scheme depends on the type of business and circumstances of the claim. Further information about compensation scheme arrangements is available from the Financial Services Compensation Scheme 10th Floor, Beaufort House, 15 St Botolph Street, London EC3A 7QU or from their website (www.fscs.org.uk).
