From Marker on the Database to Marker Removed
You are the formal Complainant throughout. The bank, CIFAS, and the Financial Ombudsman deal with you directly. If the case reaches court, you stand as Litigant in Person under the Civil Procedure Rules.
We prepare every document. You send it. That division is how the process works, and it is why each stage is structured around what you receive and what it is designed to achieve.
Guide section
Stage 1: Subject Access Requests
Before anything can be challenged, you need to know exactly what the bank is holding against you. We prepare subject access requests to CIFAS and the filing institution so the record, category, evidence, and product decision are brought into view.
Guide section
Stage 2: Professional Complaint to the Bank
We prepare your formal complaint. It examines whether the marker meets the required standard, challenges the lawful basis under UK data protection law, requests removal, and claims compensation for the harm caused.

Stage 3: CIFAS Review and FOS Bundle
If the bank refuses removal, we prepare both escalations together: the CIFAS review submission and the Financial Ombudsman referral. The aim is to prevent delay and keep pressure on the bank from two routes.

Stage 4: Weekly Live Sessions
Active clients can join Leo Musami's weekly group session when a response arrives, an escalation is being prepared, or the next stage needs to be understood.
Client support
The session is there so you know what the latest bank response means and what document comes next.

Stage 5: Court Documents and Compensation Claim
If earlier routes do not resolve the matter, we prepare the full court bundle, including Letter of Claim, Particulars of Claim, witness statement, and supporting exhibits.
The compensation claim is structured to seek between £1,500 and £5,000 for distress and financial harm. The court filing fee is paid directly to the court and can usually be recovered from the bank if the claim succeeds.
