Complaints About AI-Generated Content
If you believe an AI-generated receipt extraction or chat response was inaccurate, misleading, or constituted financial advice rather than information, you can:
- Report it using the steps above, specifying the date and content of the AI output
- Request a manual review, which we will complete within 5 business days
- Request deletion of the AI-generated content from your account
We log AI interactions for quality assurance (retained for 14 days) and can review the specific output you are concerned about.
4. Escalation to the Financial Services and Pensions Ombudsman (FSPO)
If you are not satisfied with our final response, or if we have not resolved your complaint within 40 business days, you may refer your complaint to the Financial Services and Pensions Ombudsman (FSPO). The FSPO is an independent statutory body that deals with complaints about financial service providers.
You must refer your complaint to the FSPO within 6 years of the conduct complained of, or within 3 years of the date you became aware (or ought reasonably to have become aware) of the conduct, whichever is later.
