Fortress Capital - could you be eligible to get your money back?
Refundee can help many people who have lost money to the Fortress Capital Partners Investment scheme get their money back.
What happened?
Fortress Capital was an unregulated investment scheme that went into administration in September 2023 owing huge sums of money to investors. Investors were told that their money was going to be loaned to businesses and they would achieve returns from the interest paid by the borrowers. It’s been widely reported that there were many famous investors and administrators have since labelled it a Ponzi scheme.
Many investors do not realise that they could be reimbursed by their bank and Refundee can help people who invested into the Fortress Capital scheme get their money back.
Who might be able to get their money back from their bank?
In short, if you sent the money via a UK bank transfer from a bank that is signed up to the Contingent Reimbursement Model Code (CRM), you could get your money back. A list of banks that are signed up can be found here.
The Code only applies to payments that were made as a result of an ‘APP scam’ and given that Fortress Capital Partners has been labelled as a “Ponzi Scheme”, we think you are covered by the Code as long as:
You sent the money from a UK bank signed up to the CRM
You sent the money on or after 28 May 2019
You sent the money via a UK bank transfer
If you meet this criteria and you’ve already spoken to your bank and they’ve said no, you should challenge them.
How Refundee could do it for you
Firstly, it’s the right thing to acknowledge that you can do this process yourself. Of course, doing it yourself can avoid having to incur an eventual fee.
If you would like our help, then you can Start Your Claim on our website or call us on 0204 525 4600. We will then investigate your case, let you know whether we can help, put together your case, and manage the process from beginning to end. Our fees are fair, industry-lowest, and straightforward. We only charge a fee if we’re successful, and there are no hidden or upfront costs. We charge 15% + VAT on anything you get back up to a maximum of £10,000 + VAT. Read more about them here.
How would the process work?
Refundee manages everything for you. We begin with an investigation to understand what happened in your specific circumstances. After some paperwork, we handle your case from start to finish, working with your bank through to the Financial Ombudsman Service.
These cases can take around 6-12 months, although the process can vary in terms of duration.
