How will you deal with my complaint?

Whether or not your complaint is entitled to be referred to the FOS, we take and treat all complaints seriously and deal with them in a fair manner.

We aim to acknowledge receipt of your complaint within 1 business day but it may take up to 5 days depending on how you’ve notified us of your complaint.

If we are able to complete our investigation of your complaint and resolve it within 3 business days, we will send you a summary resolution communication with the required details within 5 days of receipt of your complaint.

If we need more time, we will send you an acknowledgement notification within 5 working days of the complaint receipt and keep you updated on progress. We will respond to your complaint with our findings and outcome within 8 weeks of receipt of your complaint.

If you are still unhappy

If you’re not satisfied with how we’ve dealt with your complaint, you can request that the FOS review your complaint. Either write, call or email the FOS at:
