Complaining to sellers of credit linked notes

Message from Adrian Tan

Mr Tan Kin Lian has urged that the many people who have yet to lodge a complaint to do so.
If you are one of them, you should because the results of the MAS/FIs Complaints Resolution process are more favourable than many have expected. Read this.

In particular, minibond investors who have not complained, should do so because "For the Lehman Minibond Programme Notes which were sold by banks and one finance company, 34% will receive offers of full settlement and 41% will receive offers of partial settlement; for those sold by stockbroking firms, 1% will receive offers of full settlement and 12% % will receive offers of partial settlement."
The following form, was drafted for the use of the layperson complainant.  It is self-explanatory. Many investors have used the format.
(Note to users -- You can just type the questions down in an email message, and answer them according. You need not, print out a hard copy and answer on it. Just use the format in an email message.)  After completion, you can send the form here.
As said earlier, the form is self-explanatory, and anyone who has a secondary school education in English should have no problem filling it in for himself, a relative or friend. But for anyone who doesn't want to fill it in person, and is willing to pay me S$120, I will prepare a draft based on the information provided. I can be contacted at atans1@hotmail.com.
No point asking me to do it for free. If you can send me an email in English, you can fill it in yourself at no monetary cost to yourself or to complainant.
A Tan
