We’ll aim to have everything sorted within three working days. But if we can’t fix the problem, we’ll let you know why and what the next steps are.

What do we do with your complaint?

If we receive a complaint, we follow the steps detailed below:

Summary Resolution

If we’ve been able to resolve your complaint to your satisfaction within 3 working days, following receipt of your complaint.

What will it tell you?

It will let you know your complaint has been resolved and tell you about the Financial Ombudsman Service.

Acknowledgement

If we’ve been unable to resolve your complaint to your satisfaction within 3 working days, following receipt of your complaint.

What will it tell you?

It will let you know our complaint handling process and information about the Financial Ombudsman Service.

Eight week update

If we’ve been unable to resolve your complaint within 8 weeks.

What will it tell you?

It will let you know why we are not in a position to give you our final response and when we expect to be able to provide this. We’ll also let you know about your right to contact the Financial Ombudsman Service.

Final Response

If we’ve been unable to resolve your complaint within 3 working days, we’ll send you our Final Response when we’ve completed our investigations. We’ll do our best to send this at the earliest opportunity.

What will it tell you?

This is a detailed response, which will outline:

- Our investigation
- The decision
- Next steps, if applicable

It will also provide information about the Financial Ombudsman Service.

We’re regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). We’ll only follow the four steps above, if the FCA agree your problem meets their definition of a complaint. Each step will also give you further information about the Financial Ombudsman Service.

Independent Review

If we don’t complete our investigations within 8 weeks of receiving your complaint or you’re unhappy with our response, you may ask the Financial Ombudsman Service to look at your complaint. This is a free and independent service. If you decide to contact them, you should do so within 6 months of our response letter. Referring your case to the Financial Ombudsman Service will not affect your legal rights.

  • Unacceptable behaviour policy

    At Privilege, we aim to provide exceptional service for our customers.

    We're dedicated to building an inclusive environment and believe that everyone should be treated with respect and dignity. Nobody should be subjected to abuse, threats, discrimination or any other form of unacceptable behaviour.

    While we recognise that customers may be stressed, upset or frustrated when they contact us, we will not tolerate unacceptable behaviour towards our staff.

    Examples of unacceptable behaviour include, but are not limited to:

    • Making threats towards our staff or business
    • Behaving in a harassing or discriminatory way towards our staff
    • Making abusive or offensive comments
    • Using inappropriate or offensive language
    • Making racist, sexist, homophobic or other discriminatory remarks
    • Demanding a response or action within an unreasonable timeframe
    • Insisting on speaking to a particular member of staff when that is not possible or appropriate
    • Making unreasonable or excessive demands on the time and resources of our staff

    How we manage unacceptable behaviour:

    Before we make any decisions under this policy, we will conduct a thorough review of the situation and always consider the individual circumstances.

    If we decide the behaviour is unacceptable, we will take action which may include, but is not limited to:

    • Letting the customer know about our concerns
    • Restricting how the customer can contact us
    • Notifying the relevant public authorities and/or taking legal action
