What is a complaint?
As defined in our Complaints Code of Practice, a complaint is when we receive an expression of dissatisfaction with the way we’ve done things (or not done something), and you want us to respond to you or take action to address your concerns. Your complaint may relate to either the services we provide to you, the process we use for resolving complaints, or the customer service you have experienced.
