Justice for Mis-Sold Investors
Clients who trusted Neglect Assist to reclaim losses from bad investments share their experiences of professional handling and impressive results.

"I was sold an investment in blue chip companies in the form of two Bonds. These bonds lost a considerable amount of their value. The other side offered a negotiated settlement which I accepted. I duly received a cheque for quite a substantial sum which was money that I had thought I would never see again. "

Anthony

"They managed through mediation to recover most of the original value of our investment which lost a large amount of its original value in a relatively short space of time. Overall we are very pleased that we contacted this company and very pleased with the outcome. "

Steven Andrews

"In 2007 I invested a substantial sum with advice from a major bank. The returns were poor, though I got my capital back. I saw a Wixted & Co ad describing mis-selling scenarios that matched my experience. Without much hope, I contacted them—and was soon pleased they took up my case. Despite initial rejection by the bank, Wixted pursued it through the courts. The bank conceded and paid a settlement, just before the hearing—what a Christmas present! Wixted were professional, helpful and supportive throughout. Absolutely first class. "

Mr Shaw

"An excellent result for my compensation claim for a failed bond investment. Communication was clear and prompt throughout. Demonstrated great expertise in navigating the procedure. "

Foxdial

"They were brilliant rescuing us after a 5-year investment failed with no profit. Their expertise secured compensation beyond our expectations. "

L Muncer

"We saw an ad about bad investments and called the freephone number. A few months later, Wixted took our claim on — it took a while but was worth the wait. "

Bob

"After 5 years, my bank investment showed just £138 profit. I saw an advert and contacted Wixted. Today I received a cheque for £5,957.05. They were very professional and worked quickly to secure my mis-sold investment. "

Tom Gavigan

"We are a senior couple who invested £35,000 in a five-year plan with a large National Bank, only to see a profit of £350. From my first call with their solicitor, I felt hope. A few months later, we are receiving almost £7,000 in settlement — far more than we ever expected. "

Mrs Cartlidge

"My wife and I were extremely overwhelmed by the hard work of the solicitors at Wixted & Co. Despite having little to go on, they secured us a lump sum for a mis-sold investment. They kept us informed at every stage, and with their no win no fee guarantee, we felt reassured throughout. Thanks to them, we received compensation even an ombudsman said we weren’t entitled to. We would recommend Wixted & Co to anyone looking for reliable, hard-working solicitors. "

Mr and Mrs Flint

"Mr Ben Pite gave us help and guidance throughout our claim, and we eventually recuperated all of our losses, so we're delighted. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Wixted — they certainly gave us great service. "

G and J Greenhough

"Very impressed with Wixted & Co regarding my investment with Store First Limited, especially the partner who handled my case after being scammed by Toby Whittaker. The Insolvency Service took legal action which saw Store First wound up. The new owners of the assets are wholly owned by Jennifer Whittaker, wife of Store First CEO Toby Whittaker, who is being investigated over the £230m Park First scheme. "
