Acknowledgement of your complaint in writing within 5 business days after receipt. This will state who is handling the complaint.
We will aim to resolve your complaint within 4 weeks of receipt, unless the matter is very complicated, such as where other organisations need to be contacted. Where this is the case, we will still let you know what action is being taken and tell you when we expect to provide you with a final response.
Our goal is to ensure that you receive a final response letter within 8 weeks of receipt of your complaint. 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.
What is a final response?
This letter should clarify the final position in relation to your complaint and any actions agreed going forward.
