What should you do when making a complaint So we can deal with your complaint effectively, it will be helpful if you will provide us with the following details in your e-mail: Your policy or certificate number (usually this can be found at the top of your policy documentation). If you cannot locate this, the contract or UMR (“unique market reference”) number, also in your policy documentation. The name of the person or group that purchased the policy. This may also be your employer or another group of which you are a member. The reason you are dissatisfied with and what you would like us to consider doing to make this right.

We will provide you with the complaint handler’s contact details, in case you wish to discuss that decision further.
