  • Tunbridge Wells Healthcare Limited (FRN 659675) is an AR of WPA Healthcare Practice Plc (FRN 757721). When you use Tunbridge Wells Healthcare's services, the FCA authorisation sits with the principal firm.
  • Example: if you take financial advice from Tunbridge Wells Healthcare, complaints and compensation usually follow the same rules as dealing with the principal, but this depends on the product and your circumstances.
