If you have been affected by the Premier FX collapse, and have been trying to contact the firm, you are advised to now send all correspondence, in writing, to the administrators.

Various investigations are being launched and news reports suggest that the Bank of England and the Financial Ombudsman are already involved alongside the Financial Conduct Authority.
