Consumers could get back money if they have lost out as a result of their dealings with any of the failed financial firms, the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) said on Thursday.
FSCS protects customers of regulated financial services firms. A declaration of default means FSCS is satisfied a firm is unable to pay claims for compensation made against it.
This paves the way for customers of that firm to make a claim.
Alex Kuczynski, chief corporate affairs officer at FSCS, said: “We want anyone who believes they may be owed money as a result of their dealings with any of these firms to get in touch as we may be able to help you.”
