Complaints Procedure
Any expression of dissatisfaction about the provision, or failure to provide, a financial service and complaints handling procedure which alleges that the complainant has suffered (or may suffer) financial loss, material distress or material inconvenience is treated as a complaint. This includes correspondence in writing and that made during the course of verbal communication. Where any customer expresses concern about the service, steps should be taken to resolve that matter and it should be treated as a complaint.
Complaints will be resolved within 1 business days upon receipt. We will also provide the customer with a ‘Summary Resolution Communication’ once the complaint has been resolved.
Complaints are initially made to the customer service team, and can be done via telephone on a local telephone number (basic rate). Complaints may be received directly from customers or from third party representatives. In the event of any complaint the matter must be recorded and logged, and referred to the nominated complaints handler in accordance with the complaint handling process.
Any complaint received from a third party representative such as Trading Standards or the Citizens Advice Bureau should be immediately referred to the nominated complaints handler. Customers are provided with FOS details (including the website) and a leaflet on raising a complaint to FOS should they wish to do so. We are required to complete a complaints return twice a year containing all complaints data.
