Our complaints process.

We aim to provide you, always, with a first-class standard of service. However, there may be occasions when you feel that this objective has not been achieved. We take all complaints seriously and will deal with your complaint in the following manner:

  • If your complaint cannot be resolved by the close of the next business day, following its receipt, we will ensure that you are regularly kept informed of our progress about the investigation into your complaint.
  • We will acknowledge your complaint within 5 days following receipt enclosing a copy of these procedures.
  • Investigate your complaint and aim to respond within four weeks.
  • If we can’t do this, we’ll send you an update. We aim to send a final response within eight weeks of receiving a complaint. If this isn’t possible, we’ll write to explain why and tell you when we will respond.
  • Where we are unable to provide you with our Final Decision Letter, we will send you confirmation of this in writing along with an explanation as to why we have been unable to complete our investigations within this time scale. We will confirm when you can next expect contact from us.
  • Where we are still unable to complete our investigations within 8 weeks of your complaint, we will send confirmation of this in writing along with an explanation as to why we have been unable to complete our investigations within this time scale. We will confirm when you can next expect contact from us. At this stage, you will be entitled to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service.
