Ombudsman’s Determination

Outcome

Miss S’ complaint is upheld and, to put matters right, the Employer shall pay £3,000.06 into the Scheme. The Employer shall ensure that Miss S is not financially disadvantaged by its maladministration. So, it shall arrange for any investment loss to be calculated and paid into the Scheme. 

In addition, the Employer shall pay Miss S £500 for the significant distress and inconvenience it has caused her.
