Any complaint, verbal or written, will be allocated it to the most appropriate Complaints Handler. We will always try to resolve your complaint immediately. However, sometimes this may not be possible. In all cases we will implement the following process:
Your case reference will your name and registration number
We will send you written acknowledgement within 5 working days
We will make contact to seek clarification on any points where necessary
We will conduct a thorough, internal investigation into your complaint but where relevant this could extend to third parties
Keep you informed and fully updated regarding any progress
Discuss with your our findings and proposed response
Our aim will be to send you our final written response within ten working days but no later than eight weeks.
If we are able to investigate and resolve your complaint within 3 days, you will receive a summary resolutions response from ourselves, which will detail our outcome and findings.
In the event our investigations take longer than 3 days, we will issue you a Final Response within the 8-week timescale.
This will include detailed information of your complaint, our investigation and the resolution we have come to.
In all responses, we will list the Financial Ombudsman Services details should you wish to take your complaint further, or you are unhappy with the decision we have come to.
We will consider a complaint closed when we have made our final response to you. This does not prevent you from exercising any rights you may have to refer the matter to the Financial Ombudsman Service.
If you have a regulated consumer credit contract arranged by us and are not satisfied with our Final Response, you may be eligible to refer the matter to the Financial Ombudsman.
If relevant, you can refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service – you must do this within six months of our final response. When we send you a final response, we will also provide you with a copy of the Financial Ombudsman Service’s explanatory leaflet.
We will co-operate fully with the Ombudsman in resolving any complaints made against us and agree to be bound by any awards made by them.
