We shall acknowledge receipt of your complaint within 3 business days of receipt by us

We shall resolve your complaint and send you our final response within 4 weeks of receipt of your complaint. If we have not resolved your complaint within 4 weeks of receipt, we shall write to you explaining why we are not yet in a position to provide our final response. We shall explain the reason for the delay and let you know when we expect to be able to provide a final response.

When our investigation is complete, we will write to you:

• Explaining the outcome of the investigation
• Outlining the nature and terms of any offer of settlement which
  we are prepared to make in satisfaction of the complaint or
  giving the reasons for rejecting the complaint;
• Giving you the opportunity to provide us with further
  information or documentation in support of your complaint.

We will also inform you that if we do not hear from you within
4 weeks from the date of our letter, we will consider your
complaint closed.

If you are not satisfied with our suggested resolution, or if 4 weeks have passed since you first brought your complaint to our attention and it has not resolved, you have the right to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service.

If you want the Financial Ombudsman Service to look into your complaint, you must contact them within six months of the date of any final response issued.

The Financial Ombudsman Service offers a free independent service and they can help with most financial complaints. However, there are some limitations on what the Financial Ombudsman Service can look into and further information about this can be obtained from them directly.
