You can bring it to the Financial Services and Pensions Ombudsman (FSPO) and potentially benefit from compensation of up to €500,000. Up until the end of 2017, the Pensions Ombudsman operated as a separate entity, but was amalgamated with the broader financial services sector from January 1st, 2018. When this happened, the legislative remit of the old Pensions Ombudsman was simply carried over. Before 2013, it could not name any of the financial services institutions it received complaints against. Now it can, but only those that have had at least three complaints upheld, substantially upheld or partially upheld, in a year against them.
