Corporate customers*
If you have a dedicated Relationship Manager at the Bank then you may wish to refer your complaint to this person in the first instance.  Your Relationship Manager will look to address any concerns you may have. 

Our complaints process
What happens when you first complain?
We will always try to resolve your concerns there and then. If this is not possible, we will acknowledge receipt of your complaint within five business days and will fully investigate all the issues you have raised.  We aim to resolve complaints within eight weeks of receiving your complaint.  For certain complaints that relate to payment services we are required to resolve these complaints more quickly and so will aim to resolve these type of complaints within 15 business days. Sometimes it may take a little longer to resolve matters – if this is the case, we will keep you updated on our progress throughout.

What can you do if you're not satisfied with the response to your complaint?
Clearly, we always want to be able to resolve your concerns. If you consider that our final response to your complaint still does not fully address your issues, please let us know so we can understand if there is anything more we can do. Alternatively, you may be able to take your complaint directly to the Financial Ombudsman Service.  The Ombudsman can be contacted on 0800 023 4 567 / 0300 123 9 123.  More detail about the  
Ombudsman, including additional contact information, can be found on the Ombudsman’s website at: http://www.financial-ombudsman.org.uk/

* For our corporate customers, the Financial Ombudsman Service may be unable to review your case.  In these instances please let your Relationship Manager know if you remain dissatisfied with the response provided.  You may alternatively have the right to seek legal advice, with which we will fully co-operate with any investigations.  If you are unsure of your eligibility to make a complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service then please either contact your Relationship Manager directly or contact the Financial Ombudsman Service (http://www.financial-ombudsman.org.uk/contact/index.html).
