Explained in plain English

Who protects BNPL shoppers?

Previously, there wasn't a clear path for complaints about BNPL services. Now, with regulation, you can take issues directly to the Financial Ombudsman Service. This independent body can investigate your complaint and order companies to put things right, offering a new layer of protection for consumers.
