The Problem

Banks often blame the victim

Under Canadian banking regulations, financial institutions must reimburse customers for unauthorised transactions — unless they can prove the customer was at fault. Yet many banks routinely deny valid claims, citing vague "negligence" or "failure to protect credentials."

Automatic Denials

Many banks use automated systems that reject claims without proper investigation.

Blame the Customer

Banks often claim you were "negligent" — even when you followed all security protocols.

Delays & Stalling

Banks drag out the process, hoping you'll give up. We know the timelines and force action.

Legal Loopholes

Banks use complex terms and conditions to avoid liability. We interpret the law to your benefit.

Banks refused to help — until we stepped in

Phishing Scam — Bank Blamed the Customer

A client fell for a sophisticated phishing email that looked exactly like his bank's communication. The bank refused to reimburse $45,000, claiming he was "negligent." We proved otherwise and recovered the full amount.

"They said I should have known better. Reclaimo showed them the law."

Unauthorised Wire Transfer

A fraudster gained access to a client's online banking and wired $78,000 overseas. The bank denied liability, saying the client "must have shared credentials." We challenged the bank's security protocols and won.

"I didn't share anything. The bank had a security flaw."

Identity Theft — Bank Refused to Investigate

A client's identity was stolen, and the thief drained multiple accounts. The bank refused to investigate, claiming the client "should have monitored more closely." We forced the bank to reimburse $120,000.

"I didn't know what to do. Reclaimo fought for me."

Our Process

We don't ask. We demand.

1. Case Assessment

We review your bank's denial and gather all relevant documents, emails, and transaction records.

2. Legal Analysis

We identify violations of banking regulations, consumer protection laws, and industry standards.

3. Formal Challenge

We file complaints with the bank's internal dispute team, escalate to the Ombudsman (OBSI), and, if needed, initiate legal proceedings.

4. Recovery & Interest

We secure your refund, plus any interest and compensation you're owed — and you only pay us if we succeed.

Red Flags

Has your bank unfairly denied your claim?

Vague denial reasons

The bank says "negligence" or "failure to protect" but doesn't provide specifics.

Long delays

The bank takes months to respond, hoping you'll give up.

No investigation

The bank doesn't appear to have actually investigated the incident.

Offer below loss

The bank offers a partial refund or goodwill payment far less than your actual loss.

If you recognise these signs — contact us immediately. We can still overturn the decision and recover your money.

“My bank refused to reimburse $50,000 that was stolen from my account. Reclaimo took over and within 8 weeks, the bank paid me back in full — plus interest. I can't thank them enough.”
