14. COMPLAINTS/COMPENSATION
14.1. If you have a complaint related to your use of the Services, please email us at the details in the
Contact section below. We will acknowledge receiving your complaint within 5 business days.
14.2. We will do our best to resolve your complaint as soon as possible, and send you a final response
by email within 15 days of receiving the complaint. If, in exceptional circumstances, for reasons
beyond our control, we need more time to respond, we will send you a holding reply within 15
days of receiving your complaint to let you know when you will receive our final response. The final
response will be no later than 35 days from the date on which we first received your complaint.
14.3. If you do not receive our final response on time, or you are unhappy with our final response,
you may be entitled to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service, details of which
are available at http://www.financialombudsman.org.uk/consumer/complaints.htm. You can also
call them on 0800 023 4567 or tell them about a complaint online (via
https://help.financial-ombudsman.org.uk/help). Please note that the ombudsman may not
consider a complaint if you have not provided us with the opportunity to resolve it previously.
14.4. Your use of the Services does not qualify for protection under the UK Financial Services
Compensation Scheme (“FSCS”). You acknowledge and agree that the Wallet is an electronic
money account, not a bank account, and is therefore not covered by the FSCS.
14.5. As a regulated firm, when we receive a payment or the money you add to the Wallet, we
quickly place it into one of the dedicated client money bank accounts that we hold with large
commercial or central banks (client money accounts keep your money separated from our own
money, and the types of banks we can use are set by regulations). This is called “safeguarding”. We
keep safeguarding the balance in your Wallet until you pay it out or get it refunded. In the event of
our insolvency, you will be paid from these dedicated client money bank accounts in priority to
other creditors in accordance with applicable law.

connection with the Services and/or this Agreement may be brought in the courts of England and

(Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 (or any other equivalent legislation) to enforce any term of this
Agreement.
15.3. Waiver: No waiver of any provision hereof will be effective unless made in writing and signed by

subsequent enforcement of such term or obligation or be deemed a waiver of any subsequent

We may transfer, assign, and/or novate this Agreement and/or any of our rights under this
Agreement at any time without your consent. This does not affect your right to terminate this

supersedes all prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or between the Parties, or
any of them, written or oral, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not be affected or impaired in
any way, and you agree to accept a replacement of such invalid, illegal and unenforceable provision
with a valid, legal and enforceable provision that achieves, to the greatest lawful extent under this
Agreement, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provision.
