Complaint Procedure
We aim to ensure a high-quality service is always provided, but we accept that things do occasionally go wrong. Please make any complaint as follows to ensure it can be addressed as quickly as possible.
Any complaints received will receive our urgent attention. It may be possible to reach a prompt satisfactory resolution of your complaint within 3 business days of receipt. If this is not possible your complaint will be acknowledged within 5 business days of receipt, and we will contact you again as soon as we are able, and at the latest within 28 days. If we are unable to find a resolution or provide you with our final response within this time, we will contact you with an explanation and keep you informed of our investigation process.
Our regulator, the Financial Conduct Authority, expects complaints to be resolved within 8 weeks, however we will always aim to resolve your complaint sooner. In the unlikely event we’ve been unable to provide you with our final response within 8 weeks of complaint receipt, we’ll write to you again, with your rights to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service, an independent dispute-resolution body. Although we will continue to keep you appraised of developments, at a minimum of every 28 days until the complaint is resolved, or the matter has been referred to the Financial Ombudsman Service.

If you have a problem relating to a service provided by your insurer, e.g., in connection with a claim, please contact them (or their nominated service provider), as shown in your policy document.
Any complaints received will naturally receive our urgent attention. Your complaint will be acknowledged within 5 business days of receipt, and we will contact you again as soon as we are able, at the latest within eight weeks. If we are unable to find a resolution or provide you with our final response within this time, we will contact you with an explanation and keep you informed of our investigation process.
If any issues are more appropriately ones that should be dealt with by the insurer, we will pass details to them and will ensure that they respond promptly.
If your complaint is not resolved to your satisfaction after we have issued you with our final response, you may refer the matter to The Financial Services Ombudsman service, an independent dispute-resolution body who can be contacted using the below details.
