You’ll speak directly to a qualified nurse, whether it’s to talk about new symptoms or a GP referral.

Taking a complaint further

The FOS expects you to give a company eight weeks to resolve the issue before contacting them. You'll need to contact the FOS within six months of getting our final response. Here’s a good article about your rights.
It’s free to use the FOS by email, phone and post, or through their website:
