Financial Ombudsman Service
The complainant has requested a collections report from the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS). The FOS refused to provide the information, explaining that it was the complainant’s own personal data which cannot be provided under this legislation and citing section 40(1) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the FOS was correct in citing the exemption because the requested information is the complainant’s own personal data and therefore is absolutely exempt under FOIA. The Commissioner does not require further steps.
FOI 40(1):
Complaint not upheld
Decision notice:
257075
