Complaint response times

Where we are unable to resolve your complaint by the end of the third working day after receipt, you can expect the following from us:

  • Acknowledgement of your complaint in writing within 5 working days of receipt. This will state who is handling the complaint.
  • If your complaint is not resolved within 4 weeks, we will issue you with a letter to update you on its progress. In some cases, complaints can take longer than 4 weeks to resolve if we have to collect information from other organisations.
  • Our goal is to ensure that you receive a final response letter within 8 weeks of receipt of your complaint. This letter should clarify the final position in relation to your complaint and any actions agreed going forward. If we are still unable to provide you with a final response at this stage, we will write to you explaining why, and advise when you can expect a final response.  At this point you can refer your complaint to The Financial Ombudsman Service.

If, after you have received our response, you are dissatisfied you may be able to refer it up to the Financial Ombudsman Service.
