How we will deal with your complaint

We will acknowledge your complaint within two working days. We will then investigate your complaint and will aim to resolve it within 10 working days. If we need more time to investigate your complaint, we will let you know.

We will keep you informed of our progress and will ask for your views on any proposed solutions.

When we have completed our investigation, we will write to you to let you know our findings. We will also tell you what we have done to resolve the problem and how we will prevent it from happening again.
