Why Am I Here?
You’re at the right place – for now! The Credit Ombudsman (CO) is now part of the new National Financial Ombudsman (NFO).

The NFO is a single, one-stop, all-in-one dispute resolution service made up 4 former longstanding services: the Credit Ombud (CO); Banking Ombud (OBS); the Ombudsman for Long-Term Insurance (OLTI); and the Short-Term Insurance Ombud (OSTI). The NFO’s services are provided free of charge.

What does that mean to credit provider customers?

All of the services and assistance involving disputes between credit providers and their customers previously provided by the CO are available for individuals and companies, but now under the NFO umbrella.

So if I have a dispute with my credit provider, I can now approach the NFO?

Precisely! Simply follow the link below for all the information you need about our free services, including how to submit your credit provider complaint, and much more.

See you there!
