What you need to provide
To help us investigate and resolve your complaint as quickly as possible it would be helpful if you could provide the following information:
• Your name and address.
• Your reference number.
• A daytime telephone number where we can contact you.
• A clear description of your complaint.
• Details of what you would like us to do to put it right.
What happens next?
Once you’ve contacted us we will do our best to resolve your complaint as quickly as possible – by the next day if possible – but if we can’t we will:
• Provide a written acknowledgment of your complaint within five working days.
• Give you the details of who is handling your complaint and how to contact them.
Sometimes this may not be the person who received your complaint but the individual best-placed to deal with it.
We aim to resolve your complaint within four weeks. If we are unable to do so, we will write to you explaining what is happening and when we expect to have an answer. After eight weeks we will send you a final response or a further progress report.
