Ombudsman’s Determination
Outcome
Mr T’s complaint against the Trustee is partly upheld, but there is a part of the complaint I do not agree with. To put matters right, for the part that is upheld, the Trustee should pay Mr T £500 for the significant distress and inconvenience caused to him by the misinformation he received. The complaint against the Administrator is not upheld.
My reasons for reaching this decision are explained in more detail below.
