SPRINGBOK PROPERTIES COMPLAINTS PROCEDURE
Springbok Properties strives to provide a high standard of service to all our customers at all times. If you feel we have not achieved this in any way, we'd really like you to tell us.
If You Have a Complaint
If you're not happy for any reason, your first point of contact should be with the team handling the sale of the property. It doesn't matter if you are the vendor, a prospective buyer or you have purchased the property through us. The team you have been dealing with will get started on resolving any issues as soon as they are aware of the problem.
If they can't help, they will escalate you complaint within our internal complaint procedures. You will be contacted by a manager or assistant manager the same day if we can.
Sometimes a complaint can be complex, or requires some investigation on our part. You may feel you would like to make your complaint more formal. If that is the case, please feel free to contact us by email or post.

To help us get to the bottom of things quickly and allow us to provide you with a speedy response, it would really help if you could give us as much information as possible about your problem. If you can, tell us what you would like us to do to resolve your complaint.
We will acknowledge your complaint within three working days, and let you know when you should receive our full and final response. We may contact you for more information in the meantime to help make the right decision.
If you are unhappy with our final decision, you may contact the Ombudsman who will then be able to independently review your complaint and our response. More information can be found on their website or by contacting them directly.

With regard to advertising, the difficulty lies in your property being commercial and not residential. This severely restricts the number of sites where we can advertise it. As you stated, once we found out that the valuer had provided you with information that was incorrect for a commercial listing, we offered you the option of cancelling the contract. We felt that this was a fair solution, as we do not want clients to feel they have been misled.
Once you asked for your property to be withdrawn, the request was actioned by the negotiators. Unfortunately there was a delay in withdrawing the property from the market and we can only apologise for this. I would like to thank you for bringing this issue to our attention - we have since investigated it with the department concerned to make sure this kind of delay does not occur again.
I can assure you that this is an isolated incident. We are very proud of our 96% customer satisfaction rating and being ranked 24th out of 13,000 estate agents is something we hope to improve on, so making sure we act on all feedback is essential for us as a company.
Should you wish to further discuss any aspect of this complaint, please don't hesitate in contacting us at [email protected] Warm regards from all the team at Springbok.
