At Sandfield Capital we are committed to providing all of our customers with the best possible service. However, we understand that there may be times when we fall short of our high standards and we do not meet your expectations. We want all our customers to let us know straight away if they are unhappy so that we can address the issues raised and that we can learn lessons so we can try to avoid similar issues in the future. If you need to make a complaint we aim to resolve your complaint quickly and efficiently. We want to:
We understand that making a complaint can be stressful in itself and that is why we want you to be able to complain in any way to suit you:
If we cannot resolve your complaint within 3 working days, we will contact you initially within five working days of receiving your complaint either with a full reply or send you an acknowledgement letter, which will tell you who is dealing with your complaint and when we will contact you again.
We will then investigate your complaint fully and write to you with our findings within 8 weeks, although if your complaint is particularly complex, we may need to spend a little longer investigating it. However in those circumstances we will keep you up to date on our progress.
We try to resolve all complaints from customers internally. However, if you remain unhappy with our response to your complaint, or if we have not resolved it 8 weeks after you first told us about it, you have the right to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service. If you want the Financial Ombudsman Service to look into your complaint, you must refer it to them within 6 months of the date of our final response to you. You can contact them at:
