Ombudsman’s Determination

Outcome

I do not uphold Mrs R’s complaint against Prudential and no further action is required by it.

I uphold Mrs R’s complaint against the Administrator and, to put matters right, it should (1) redress her for loss of potential investment growth associated with the delayed transfer and (2) pay her £500 for significant distress and inconvenience.

My reasons for reaching this decision are explained in more detail below.
