3.How we manage complaints
Once we receive your complaint:
We acknowledge:
Within three (5) working days of receiving your complaint, we will acknowledge its receipt.
The acknowledgment of receipt of a complaint shall contain all of the following:
(a) the identity and contact details, including email address and telephone number, of the person to whom, or the department to which, you can address any query related to your complaint;
(b) the date of receipt of the complaint;
(c) a reference to the timeline applicable to complaint handling;
(d) where an electronic complaint form is filed, a copy of the complaint filed by you.
We review:
We undertake an initial review of your complaint and determine what, if any, additional information or documentation may be required to complete an investigation. We may need to contact you to clarify details or request additional information where necessary.
In such circumstances we will explain the purpose of seeking clarification or additional documentation and provide you with feedback on the status of your complaint at that time.
We investigate:
Within fifteen (15) working days of receiving your complaint, we will investigate it objectively and impartially, by considering the information provided to us, our actions in relation to your dealings with us and any other information which may be available, that could assist us in investigating said complaint.
If we have sought clarification or additional documentation from you and we are waiting on you to provide this information, we may not be able to meet our fifteen (15) working day finalization commitment. In such circumstances upon receipt of your clarification or additional documentation we will indicate to you when we expect to be able to finalize your complaint.
We respond:
Following our investigation we will notify you of our findings and any actions we may have taken in regards to the user’s complaint.
Extended Timeline:
In complex cases, the investigation may take up to 30 to 35 working days. In exceptional cases where a response cannot be provided within this period, we will inform you of the delay and provide a justified reason, along with an expected timeframe for resolution.
We record:
We will record your complaint for the purposes of continuous improvement processes and monitoring through regular review. Your personal information will be recorded in accordance with relevant privacy legislation.
