COMPLAINTS HANDLING PROCEDURE
We take complaints very seriously and seek to resolve them as quickly as possible. We will investigate your complaint fairly, competently, diligently, and impartially. We will also be consistent with our investigation, as well as being reasonable and prompt. If we decide that remedial action or redress is due, we will inform you of this in our ‘Final Decision Letter’ (FDL).
If we decide not to uphold your complaint, we will clearly explain why and the reasons for our decision in our Final Decision Letter. If your complaint is not resolved to your satisfaction, you may be entitled to refer it to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS). We hold professional indemnity insurance and will work with our insurers during the complaint process.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT – 5 WORKING DAYS
We are required to acknowledge complaints “promptly.” We consider an acknowledgement within five working days to be prompt. Our acknowledgement letter will also enclose details of the FOS to whom you can refer your complaint if it is not resolved to your satisfaction.
FINAL DECISION – 4 WEEKS
Within 4 weeks we aim to issue our decision on your complaint – called a ‘Final Decision Letter’ (FDL). If we have not resolved your complaint in this time frame, we will write to you and explain what the position is, the reason for the delay and a time scale when we expect to send our FDL.
COMPLETION OF INVESTIGATION – 8 WEEKS
We are required under the rules of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to complete our investigation into your complaint and reply to you with an FDL within 8 weeks. If, for whatever reason, we cannot do this we will write to you and explain why.
When replying to you we will provide evidence of our investigation and the reasons for the conclusions we have reached. If we discover we are at fault, we will offer redress or remedial action when we decide this is appropriate. If the decision is to refute the complaint the Final Decision Letter will detail, why we are not upholding your complaint.
At this time, you will have the right to refer your complaint to FOS. We will also provide you with a booklet and a link to the FOS web site to assist you in doing this.
