A business associate of mine wants to write a complaint to the banking
authorities about a bank that has been deceptive and unfair to him .


Searching the Internet, he found  these sites:

http://www.federalreserve.gov/pubs/complaints/

http://www.ncgov.com/asp/subpages/intention.asp?P=1&I=59

http://www.howtocomplain.com/

http://www.bankrate.com/brm/news/chk/20000728.asp

http://money.guardian.co.uk/howtocomplain/0,11609,643311,00.html



He is  seeking for a site that has some good complaint letters against
banks or related service providers ,  so that  he can draft a  pungent
but effective letter .Better still a site that has case studies about
how some small businesses successfuly complained about their banks
being deceptive or  unfair .

Thank you for the rating and tip!

The best place to lodge a complaint is with the Banking Ombudsman if
you are in the UK they deal with complaints individuals may have with
their bank. All coplaints should be made in writing and they then take
the matter up with the Bank. www.bba.org.uk is related website also
refer to the Banking Code at www.bankingcode.org.uk
