Complaint Handling Policy and Procedures

Policy purpose

We value complaints as they assist us to improve our products, services and customer service. This policy has been designed to assist both customers and staff.

PSO Appliances is committed to consistent, fair and confidential complaint handling and to resolving complaints as quickly as possible.

We aim to make it easy for people to make a complaint if they are dissatisfied and we will treat all customers making a complaint equally.

Our complaint handling policy and procedure is included on our web site.

Definition of a complaint

Complaints are defined as any expression of dissatisfaction or grievance made to staff by a customer or member of the public in relation to our business.

Recording complaints

All complaints made, verbal or written, will be recorded in our complaints form at the time the complaint is made, or as soon as possible afterwards. The complaint will be recorded by the staff member who took the details.
Alternatively, customers can download our form from our web site and complete it themselves.
When taking a complaint, staff will record the name and contact details of the customer, as well as full details of the complaint including the date.
Details of all communication with the customer and any actions to resolve the complaint will be recorded in the same place.
Customers’ personal details or details of their complaint will not be divulged to third parties unless we have their written consent.
All complaints will also be entered into the company’s complaint register which will be reviewed at quarterly management meetings to discuss continuous improvement and preventative measures.
All complaints will be actioned by the Customer Service/Administration Officer or, in complex matters, referred to the Managing Director.

Informing customers of progress

We strive to resolve all complaints within 10 business days of receipt. Written complaints will be acknowledged within 2 business days and a timeframe provided for the resolution of the complaint.
Customers will be given an indication of the timeframe at the time they make their complaint.
Customers will be informed of the progress of their complaint regularly, especially if there are any delays or changes to what has been agreed.
A standard letter will be provided advising of the outcome of the complaint and providing timelines for action.
Customers will be informed of any changes to our products or services as a result of their complaint.
Where appropriate, customers who have had a complaint resolved will be contacted at a later date to see if they are happy with how their complaint was handled.

Responding to complaints

All people making a complaint will be treated with courtesy.
Customers will be given a timeframe, a contact person and details of our complaint handling process. Where possible, the staff member taking the complaint details will be the contact person.

Escalation of complaints

If a complaint cannot be resolved by the usual complaint process, it should be referred to a Managing Director and the customer will be informed and given an amended timeframe for resolution.
If we cannot resolve the complaint to the customer’s satisfaction, we will inform them about where they can take further action i.e. Consumer Affairs Tasmania. We will provide contact details.
