Complaints Procedure
Customer Complaints Procedure
We are committed to delivering a professional and high-quality service to all our clients and customers. However, if something goes wrong, we want to hear about it. Your feedback helps us improve our service and address any concerns efficiently and effectively.
If you have a complaint, please submit it in writing via letter or email, providing as much detail as possible. We will acknowledge and respond to your complaint in accordance with the timescales outlined below. Our aim is to resolve all complaints within a maximum of eight weeks.
Our Complaints Process
1. Acknowledgement of Complaint
We will acknowledge receipt of your complaint within 3 working days of receiving it.
2. Investigation and Response
Your complaint will generally be investigated by the Branch Manager, who will provide a formal written response addressing your concerns and proposing any necessary resolutions. We aim to provide this response within 15 working days of receiving your complaint. If additional time is required, we will inform you in writing and provide an updated response timeline.
3. Escalation of Complaint
If you are not satisfied with the Branch Manager’s response, you may escalate your complaint to the Managing Director, Mr Gavin Curd. You can contact him via email atheadoffice@simonmiller.co.uk or send a written complaint to:
