Complaints Settled within 3 business days Complaints that can be settled to the customer’s satisfaction within 3 business days can be recorded and communicated differently. Where we consider a complaint to be resolved to the customer’s satisfaction under this section, the firm will promptly send a ‘Summary Resolution Communication’, being a written communication from them which: (1) refers to the fact that the customer has made a complaint and informs them that they now consider the complaint to have been resolved to the customers satisfaction. (2) The firm will tell the customer that if they subsequently decide that they are dissatisfied with the resolution of the complaint they may be able to refer the complaint back to the firm for further consideration or alternatively refer the complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service; (3) Provide the website address of the Financial Ombudsman Service; and (4) Refer to the availability of further information on the website of the Financial Ombudsman Service. In addition to sending you a Summary Resolution Communication, the firm may also use other methods to communicate the information where: (1) We consider that doing so may better meet the customer’s needs; or (2) They have already been using another method to communicate about the complaint. This may include recorded calls, emails or text messages. Closing a complaint We will consider a complaint closed when we have made our final response to the customer. This does not prevent a customer from exercising any rights they may have to refer the matter to the Financial Ombudsman Service. Financial Ombudsman Service We will co-operate fully with the Ombudsman in resolving any complaints made against us and agree to be bound by any awards made by the Ombudsman. The firm undertakes to pay promptly any fees levied by the Ombudsman. How Long You Have to Complain to the Financial Ombudsman Service You have the right to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service, free of charge – but you must do so within six months of the date the final response letter. If you do not refer your complaint in time, the Ombudsman will not have our permission to consider your complaint and so will only be able to do so in very limited circumstances. For example, if the Ombudsman believes that the delay was as a result of exceptional circumstances.
