Our Complaint Process

There are three stages of the internal complaint process:

1. Acknowledgment

Once we receive a complaint in writing, we will endeavour to provide an acknowledgment letter within two business days of having received the complaint. This will provide confirmation that we are looking into your concerns and will provide a written response, or if this is not possible an update, within 28 working days. It will also provide a brief summary of what your complaint is about to ensure we understand your concerns.

2. Investigation

We will investigate your concerns and create a timeline of events based on the documentation we have on file. This includes any written communication, advice documentation and/or file notes we have on hand. This will give us a clear picture of the service we provided and our dealings with both you and the product providers.

3. Written Response

We will provide a written response addressing the concerns you have raised by outlining the findings of our investigation and explaining how the documentation we have on file supports the decision we have reached.

External Dispute Resolution

If you are unsatisfied with the final outcome of the complaint and the process that was followed, we are a member of an approved dispute resolution scheme that can provide an independent review of your complaint, free of charge.
