Review My Case

What Was Safely Investing Ltd?

Safely Investing Ltd was an investment company established in 2021, operating primarily under the directorship of Adnan Adil Shah. The company presented itself as offering lucrative trading investment opportunities to retail investors. However, it was operating without the necessary authorisation from the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).

In November 2025, the FCA issued a formal warning against Safely Investing Ltd, stating that the firm was targeting UK consumers with unauthorised financial services. Subsequently, the company stopped paying promised returns to investors, and reports indicate that arrests have been made in connection with the scheme.

How the Safely Investing Ltd Scheme Worked

Like many unauthorised investment operations, Safely Investing Ltd likely relied on promises of high or guaranteed returns to attract capital. Investors were encouraged to transfer funds, often from UK bank accounts, into the scheme under the guise of professional trading management.

Once funds were deposited, the operation eventually ceased communicating or fulfilling withdrawal requests. Because the firm was not FCA-authorised, investors were left without the standard protections of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) when the company collapsed.

Signs You May Have Been Misled

If you experienced any of the following while dealing with Safely Investing Ltd, you may have grounds for a claim:

You were promised guaranteed or unusually high returns on your investment.

The firm failed to disclose that they were not authorised by the FCA.

You were pressured to invest quickly or add more funds to 'unlock' withdrawals.

Communication ceased when you requested to withdraw your money.

You were asked to make payments via bank transfer to accounts that did not match the company name.

Your bank did not provide adequate warnings when you transferred the funds.

What to Do If You Lost Money to Safely Investing Ltd

1. Stop All Payments

Frequently Asked Questions

What are your fees?

We operate on a no-win, no-fee basis. If your claim is successful, we charge a fee of 15% + VAT of the total compensation awarded. If we do not recover any money for you, there is no fee to pay.

Can I claim if my bank has already said no?

Yes. It is common for banks to initially reject fraud refund requests. We can review their decision and, if appropriate, escalate your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service.

Is Safely Investing Ltd regulated by the FCA?

No. The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) issued a warning in November 2025 confirming that Safely Investing Ltd is not authorised to provide financial services in the UK.

How long does the claims process take?

The timeline varies depending on the complexity of the case and the bank’s response. Initial bank complaints typically take up to 8 weeks, but if escalated to the Financial Ombudsman, it can take several months longer.

Do I need to wait for the police investigation to finish?

No. You can and should pursue a refund claim against your bank concurrently. Police action does not always result in the return of stolen funds, whereas APP fraud claims focus on the bank’s liability.

What documents do I need to start a claim?

We will need to see evidence of the payments made from your bank account, any correspondence with Safely Investing Ltd, and details of how the investment was pitched to you.
