Calls to 0845 will be charged at standard local rates and 0870 numbers will be charged

provider for details of the rates that will apply to you.
Then, what happens?
|
Week one |
When we receive your complaint, we promise to acknowledge it within five working
days |
|
Within the first four weeks |
We’ll carry out a full and impartial investigation of your complaint and take account
of all available information, and write to you with details of the outcome and our
decision |
|
After four weeks |
If we haven’t been able to complete the investigation within four weeks, we’ll write
and let you know what's causing the delay and when we hope to be able to give our
response |
|
Within eight weeks |
If the investigation still isn’t complete within eight weeks and we aren’t waiting
for any more information from you, we’ll write and explain why. |
If you don’t agree with our decision, or our investigation isn’t completed within
eight weeks, you can refer to the
Financial Ombudsman Service,
Pensions Advisory Service (OPAS) or the
Pensions Ombudsman if your complaint falls within their jurisdiction.
We will be happy to provide copies of our complaints leaflet in Braille or large
print.
