What happens when you make a complaint?

Once we receive your complaint, we will review it to see if we can offer our dispute resolution service to you. Our dispute resolution service aims to help you resolve your complaint as quickly as possible. It is a voluntary service that tries to bring both sides together to find an outcome that they can agree on.
