We’ll do everything we possibly can to handle your complaint and resolve the matter if we can. Upon receipt of your initial complaint, we will write to you promptly, to tell you what we’ve done to resolve the problem or to let you know when you can expect a full response. We’ll also let you know the name and contact details of the person dealing with your case.
If we haven’t issued our final response within eight weeks from the date you first raised your complaint, or if you’re dissatisfied with our response, you can ask the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) for an independent review if you are deemed eligible to do so – see below for eligibility guidelines. The time limit for referring complaints to the Ombudsman is usually 6 months but we will consent to the Ombudsman considering your complaint even if you refer the complaint later than this.
Please include your name, address, contact phone number and account number (if relevant) with any correspondence.
*Calls to 03 numbers will cost you no more than a national rate call to 01 or 02 numbers and are part of any free minutes on your call plan. This applies to any type of line including mobile, fixed lines or payphones. Calls may be recorded for training purposes and to improve the service we provide.
The Financial Ombudsman Service will only consider your complaint once you’ve tried to resolve the issue with us, so please contact us first and we’ll do all we can to help.
