What you will need to provide.

To help us investigate and try to resolve your complaint, please provide us with the following information:  

• your name and address;
• your agreement number, if you have one;
• details of how we can contact you;
• a clear description of your complaint;
• details of what you would like us to do to rectify the situation;
• and if appropriate, copies of any relevant supporting documentation

Our procedures.

We will do our best to resolve your complaint quickly, and will send you a Summary Resolution Letter if your complaint is resolved by close of the third business day following receipt of your complaint; or:  

• within 5 working days, provide a written acknowledgement of your complaint and give you the details of who is handling the case and how to contact them,
• keep you updated on the progress of your complaint, and
• within 8 weeks of receiving your complaint, we will either:
• write to you with our final response and the reasons for providing this response, or
• explain why we are not in a position to give you a final response and let you know when we expect to be able to provide it, and
• in each case provide you with the contact details for the Financial Ombudsman Service

Step 2: If you are still not happy.

If you are dissatisfied with either our final response, or the reasons for any delay in providing our final response within eight weeks from the day we received your complaint, you can usually ask the Financial Ombudsman Service for an independent review.

To be able to ask them for an independent review you must have given us the opportunity to find a resolution first and you must be: a private individual, or a business, charity or trust with an annual turnover of less than 2 million euros and fewer than 10 employees. If you wish to pursue your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service you must do so within 6 months from the date on which we send you our final response letter.
