Fox Associates
What this means for you
Because Fox Associates has been declared in default, you can't complain via the Financial Ombudsman Service in the normal way. Instead, eligible customers can apply to the Financial Services Compensation Scheme for compensation.
Background
Fox Associates, operating under Financial Services Authority registration number 145567, has been declared in default by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme as of 17 November 2000. The firm's specific product offerings cannot be determined from available records, limiting clarity on the scope of services provided to customers. Former clients may be eligible for FSCS compensation depending on the product type involved, though the absence of product classification data prevents specification of applicable compensation limits.
