Complaints

Before making a complaint

If something’s not quite as you expected, normally the best way to deal with this is by speaking to your installation coordinator, who managed your installation. The team are here to help and they will do everything they can to find a solution to any concerns you may have. If however you are still not satisfied please be assured that we will do everything we can to reach a satisfactory conclusion.

Complaints Policy of SolarFrame

SolarFrame views complaints as an opportunity to learn and improve for the future, as well as a chance to put things right for the person that has made the complaint.

Our policy is:

• To provide a fair complaints procedure which is clear and easy to use for anyone wishing to make a complaint
• To publicise the existence of our complaints procedure so that people know how to contact us to make a complaint
• To make sure everyone at SolarFrame knows what to do if a complaint is received
• To make sure all complaints are investigated fairly and in a timely way
• To make sure that complaints are, wherever possible, resolved and that relationships are repaired
• To gather information which helps us to improve what we do

Definition of a Complaint

A complaint is any expression of dissatisfaction, whether justified or not, about any aspect of SolarFrame.

Where Complaints Come From

• Complaints may come from consumers, both prospective and existing.
• A complaint can be received verbally, by phone, by email or in writing.

Confidentiality

All complaint information will be handled sensitively, telling only those who need to know and following any relevant data protection requirements.

Responsibility

Overall responsibility for this policy and its implementation lies with the Managing Director.

Complaints Procedure of SolarFrame

• Written complaints may be sent to SolarFrame Direct Ltd at Unit 3 Davey Road Fields End Business Park, Thurnscoe, Nr Rotherham, South Yorkshire, S63 0JF or by e-mail at info@solarframe-direct.co.uk.
• Verbal complaints may be made by phone to 01709 888881

Three-Stage Complaints Procedure

Stage 1: Internal investigation

• Complaints should be acknowledged by the person handling the complaint within 7 working days.
• You should receive a definitive reply within four weeks. If this is not possible because for example, an investigation has not been fully completed, a progress report should be sent with an indication of when a full reply will be given.
• This should describe the action taken to investigate the complaint, the conclusions from the investigation, and any action taken as a result of the complaint.

Stage 2: External Stage

Where we cannot resolve any complaints using our own complaints procedure, we use an independent Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) service. Please call 029 2267 0040 to register your complaint.

Financial Complaints

If you're not completely happy with our service we'd like to hear about it, that way we can put it right. We do everything we can to make sure our customers get the best products and the best service possible, however, sometimes we may not get things right first time.

We want to:

- Make it easy for you to tell us what went wrong
- Give your complaint the attention it deserves
- Resolve your complaint fairly and without delay
- Make sure you are satisfied with how your complaint was handled

How and where to complain:

Written complaints may be sent to SolarFrame Direct Ltd at Unit 3 Davey Road Fields End Business Park, Thurnscoe, Nr Rotherham, South Yorkshire, S63 0JF or by e-mail at aftercare@solarframe-direct.co.uk.

How long will it take?
We will aim to resolve your complaint straight away but if we can't we will write to you within 5 business days to tell you:

- Why we have not resolved your complaint
- Who is dealing with your complaint
- When we will contact you again

We will usually resolve your complaint quickly, but if it is complex it may take longer. We will keep you informed on a regular basis but if you need an update please call us on the number above and ask to speak to the person dealing with your complaint.

If we cannot reach agreement with you:

If we can't agree a solution within 8 weeks and your complaint relates to our credit brokerage service we will:

- Send a letter giving our reasons for the delay and an indication of when we expect to provide a final decision
OR
- Issue our final decision letter which will explain our final position

Our aim is to resolve all credit brokerage related complaints internally. However, if after receiving our final decision letter or 8 weeks have passed you may have the right to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS).

Financial Ombudsman Service

If you want the FOS to look into your complaint you must contact them within six months of the date of our final response letter.
