How To Make A Complaint

Our aim is to get it right, first time every time. If you have a complaint we will try to resolve it straight away. If we are unable to, we will confirm we have received your complaint within five working days and do our best to resolve the problem within four weeks. If we cannot we will let you know when an answer may be expected.

In the first instance, please follow the complaints procedure outlined in your policy wording which can be found here.

Once we have received your complaint:

If we have not resolved the situation within eight weeks we will issue you with information about the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) which offers a free, independent complaint resolution service.

You have the right to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman, free of charge - but you must do so within six months of the date of 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.

Using our complaints procedure or contacting the FOS does not affect your legal rights.
