What we'll need to know
In order to capture, record and fully understand your complaint we will need some or all of the following information:
Your name and address
Your account details
A description of your complaint
How you’ve been affected
A contact number and convenient time to contact you
If you wish to nominate a third party to raise the complaint on your behalf, we will need your written authority to enable us to discuss your account with them.
What you'll need to know
When making your complaint please bear in mind
We are not liable for any fees you may need to pay for any third party’s services you may choose to use.
If we make a redress payment in respect of your complaint, this will be made directly to you.
If a complaint you raise with us has to be forwarded to the correct service provider/lender, we will do so without delay and let you know.
How we’ll handle your complaint
We’ll always do our best to fix the issue straight away. We will acknowledge your complaint within five working days of having received it.
We aim to resolve your complaint within 15 working days, but please allow us up to eight weeks. If your complaint is complex we may need more time. If this is the case, we’ll keep you updated.
We’ll give you details of how we intend to resolve your complaint and a note of your complaint reference number.
If we need to call you to find out more, it’s worth knowing that some calls may display as ‘unknown’, ‘private’ or ‘withheld’ on certain handsets. We’ll let you know we’re trying to reach you via email.
We’ll keep you updated regularly, but if you have any questions, please contact our Compliance Officer directly.
When we are in a position to do so, we will send you a final response which we hope will resolve the complaint to your satisfaction.
Where to take your unresolved complaint
If for some reason we have been unable to resolve your complaint within eight weeks, or you are not satisfied with the resolution, you can:
Take your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service. This applies to complaints relating to both regulated and non-regulated products and services.
Take your complaint to the National Association of Commercial Finance Brokers. This applies to complaints relating to non-regulated products.
The Financial Ombudsman Service
The FOS is an independent organisation which sorts out complaints consumers and financial businesses haven’t been able to settle themselves.
If for some reason we haven’t been able to resolve your complaint within eight weeks, or you’re not satisfied with our proposed resolution, you can refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service.
You’ll need to do this within six months of receiving our final response letter.
