WHEN THINGS NEED
SORTING OUT
We are committed to providing you with the highest
level of service possible, but sometimes, things can go
wrong. By letting us know when you have a problem, we
can work with you to understand what’s happened and
put it right. This easy-to-use guide tells you how to make
us aware of your views so that we can address any
concerns you may have, quickly and professionally.
HOW DO I REPORT A COMPLAINT?
The first thing you need to do is contact us and let us
know what part of our service you are unhappy with.
You can report your concerns to us by phone, in
writing by post, or you can send us an email.
We will aim to resolve any issues immediately, however if
this is not possible then your concerns will be escalated
to a manager who will investigate the matter.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
When we receive your complaint, we will:
• Send you a written acknowledgement within
three working days which will outline who is
responsible for investigating the issues raised.
• Collate as much information as possible and liaise
with the various departments involved to
establish all the facts.
• Send a detailed response within fifteen working
days, informing you of the outcome and ask if the
suggested resolution is satisfactory. If we need
more time to resolve your concerns however, you
will receive a written explanation for the delay.
All complaints are kept confidential and will be dealt
with in a fair and unbiased way. If we do not hear from
you within eight weeks of our response, we will
assume the matter has been resolved and the
complaint will be closed.
Should you have concerns in the meantime
however, please contact the member of staff whose
name appears on the letter of acknowledgement.

STILL NOT HAPPY?
After receiving our response, if you feel your
complaint has not been fully addressed, please let us
know and we will aim to resolve the matter for you.
Your concerns will be acknowledged within three
working days of receipt and your complaint will
be passed to an alternative, more senior
member of staff for consideration.
Where possible, a final response will then be issued
within fifteen working days. If we are unable to
respond to you within this timescale, we will contact
you to let you know when we anticipate a resolution,
and inform you of your right to appeal to a third party.
If you are still not satisfied with the outcome,
we would advise that you contact our
independent redress scheme.
