WE CARE WHAT YOU THINK.
It goes without saying that at Finflo Payments we want to provide an outstanding service when it comes to moving money across borders for our clients. While we take great pride in doing the best job for you, we understand that sometimes not everyone is happy.
We value your feedback, even complaints, because it gives us an opportunity to do what we do, better.
We have policy and procedures in place that allow clients and prospective clients to complain about the services that have been provided (or not provided) to them if they are dissatisfied.
We work with a number of e-money and payments institution partners in providing you with our service, including Currencycloud, Ebury Partners & GCEN who ultimately provides a number of our clients with geographically or functionally limited elements of regulated payments and e-money services in UK/EU/US.
These partners have certain obligations as regulated financial services institutions, including around complaints. We keep them informed of the complaints we receive from you regarding the regulated payments and e-money services they ultimately provide to you. They oversee how we handle complaints to ensure we do this to the standard required under the regulations. However, if for any reason your complaint regarding your payments and e-money services has not been acknowledged or dealt with by us, or if you have concerns about the way it has been handled, Currency Cloud’s complaints information can be found here.

How We Safe Guard Your Money
When funds are posted to your account, in line with regulatory requirements, the regulated [payment/e-money] institutions who we work with safeguard your funds. This means that the funds shown in your payment account or e-wallet are held at reputable banks or covered by an insurance policy, and most importantly, are protected for you in the event of our partner [e-money/payment] institutions’, or our, insolvency. Our partners stop safeguarding your funds when the money has been paid out of your account to your beneficiary’s account. If you require a breakdown of the exact amounts of funds you have safeguarded at each of our e-money/payments partners at a particular point in time, please do not hesitate to contact us.
