If more time is required to investigate the complaint further, the customer will be informed of the steps that have been taken to deal with it.

The complaint must be referred to FOS within six months of the date of Rapyd’s final response.

The Financial Ombudsman Service can help with complaints about most financial problems involving products and services provided in, or from, the UK, however, some restrictions apply.

If the complaint is in relation to products and services applied for online, it is possible to access the Financial Ombudsman Service by using the Online Dispute Resolution Platform (ODR Platform) The ODR platform is an official website managed by the European Commission to help consumers who have bought products or services online to resolve their disputes.
