This TP applies in relation to a person who falls within regulation 122(1) (Transitional provisions: requirement to be authorised as a payment institution) or regulation 123(1) (Transitional provisions: requirement to be registered as a small payment institution) of the Payment Services Regulations (a "transitioning payment institution").

2

R

This TP applies from 1 November 2009 until 30 April 2011.

3

R

DISP 1 (Treating complainants fairly) applies in relation to a transitioning payment institution as if the transitioning payment institution were a payment institution.

4

R

The Ombudsman can consider a complaint that relates to an act or omission by a transitioning payment institution under the Compulsory Jurisdiction if:

(1)

it could consider that complaint under the Compulsory Jurisdiction if it related to a payment institution; and

(2)

(where the transitioning payment institution is a licensee) the complaint relates to an act or omission in providing payment services.

5

G

The effect of this transitional provision is to:

(1)

apply to transitioning payment institutions as though they were payment institutions the complaints-handling requirements in DISP 1.1 to DISP 1.8; and

(2)

to bring them within the scope of the Compulsory Jurisdiction to the same extent as payment institutions.

6

Complaints relating to payment services, consumer credit activities or a combination of both can be considered under the Compulsory Jurisdiction. However, transitioning payment institutions that are licensees will remain subject to the Consumer Credit Jurisdiction for complaints that relate only to consumer credit activities.
