TSB Bank plc · Banking and Payments

My decision is that the Financial Ombudsman Service cannot consider the part of Mr D’s complaint about his card being blocked while abroad. As for the second part of Mr D’s complaint, TSB Bank Plc has already apologised to him and paid him £60, and I think that’s a fair way to resolve this matter in all the circumstances.
