Customer Complaints Code

Introduction

The purpose of this policy statement is to clarify what Intelling Limited (The firm) means by “a complaint” and to outline the approach that the firm will take to adequately identify and consider a customer’s personal circumstances, in accordance with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) regulations and to ensure a good outcome is achieved for the customer.

The FCA defines a complaint as “any expression of dissatisfaction, whether oral or written, and whether justified or not, from or on behalf of an eligible complainant about the firm’s provision of, or failure to provide, a financial services activity”.

The aim is to ensure that all customer complaints, either written or verbal, are handled in a consistent and regulated manner and that further complaint incidents are mitigated and where possible prevented. The complaints policy will be followed in every instance and a record will be kept of the complaint nature along with details to help improve our services and to implement measures to prevent reoccurrences where applicable.
