Case Studies

Mr N

• The client was signed up in 2015 as a result of being advised by TailorMade Independent Ltd to transfer his personal pensions into a SIPP and to invest in Green Oil, SCS Farmland and Harlequin
• We successfully pursued a claim against TailorMade and the client was awarded the maximum compensation of £50,000 in 2015 but his losses exceeded this amount
• However, we then noted that the SIPP provider, Guardian, had gone into default
• We therefore pursued a claim against the SIPP provider to recover any unresolved losses
• Unfortunately the client passed away in January 2020; the claim was therefore continued by the client’s wife
• Despite this, we were able to recover a further £38,193.98 for the client. This is due to be paid to the client’s wife once a grant of probate has been obtained

Mr U

• The client was signed up in 2019 as a result of being advised by Stadia Trustees Ltd to transfer his personal pension into a Stadia SIPP
• Despite being provided with minimal information as a result of our subject access request, we obtained enough to pursue a claim against Stadia Trustees Ltd via the FSCS in 2020 and the client was awarded £20,131.71 within 21 days of the claim being submitted

Mr O

• The client was signed up in 2017 as a result of being advised by Torch Wealth Management to transfer his personal pensions into a SIPP and to invest in various medium-high risk investments
• We pursued a claim against Torch Wealth Management via the Financial Ombudsman Service initially however, they soon went into administration
• We therefore arranged for the claim to be redirected via the FSCS and arranged for FOS’ file to be passed over
• As a result, we successfully pursued a claim against Torch Wealth Management and the client was awarded £12,684.50 in 2020
