Frequently Asked Questions:
What is considered a complaint?
A complaint is any time you feel dissatisfied and want us to take action. This could be about:
- one of our products or services;
- how a process was handled;
- the way you were treated;
- something we did—or didn’t do; or
- your overall experience with us.
No matter the issue, your opinion matters. We’re committed to hearing your concerns and working with you to find a fair resolution.
What can I expect?
Upon hearing from you, we will acknowledge receipt of your request and begin investigating.
During the investigation we may:
- Reach out to clarify any information you have provided;
- Request further information either verbally or in writing;
- Share your complaint or concern with the relevant business area;
- Request additional information from other involved parties where applicable;
- Provide updates throughout the complaint handling process; and
- Inform you of any actions being taken
When will you contact me?
You’ll hear from us within 2 business days. We aim to resolve your concern within 20 days. If we’re unable to do so, we’ll send you a written update with the expected resolution timeframe.
