Mr Alderman received an inheritance following the death of his father and met with a Financial Adviser at HSBC. Mr Alderman had plans for most of his money but the adviser encouraged him to invest into a Stocks and Shares ISA.
Mr Alderman had never invested money before so trusted the adviser when he recommended him to invest into the British Trust Fund which was linked to the Stock Market and therefore risky.
We sent our claim report to HSBC highlighting how the advice was too risky for an inexperienced investor and within weeks secured a payout of £1960.
