Mis-sold investments can drain your savings and derail your financial goals. But you don’t have to accept the loss—here’s how to spot the scam and fight back.
- What is Mis-selling? It’s when an advisor sells you an investment that’s wrong for your needs—too risky, too expensive, or not what you asked for.
- Spot the Signs: High-pressure sales, vague explanations, or investments that don’t match your risk tolerance are red flags.
- Take Action: Gather your documents, contact the firm, and escalate to the Financial Ombudsman if needed. You could get your money back.
- Protect Yourself: Ask for clear details, check advisor credentials, and trust your gut.
Don’t let mis-selling steal your future. If something feels off, act fast and reclaim what’s yours.
