The Secondary Provider would be able to provide services in the event any of the following circumstances apply:

(i) Preferred Service Provider does not have enough capacity to execute a Payment Services Order to meet FSCS statutory timescales

(ii) in the event of a major default(s) where FSCS at its discretion opts to use both suppliers in order to increase its chances of meeting statutory timelines.
