Complaints Handling Overview
At Fix Reliable Limited, we are committed to providing exceptional service to our customers. We understand that sometimes issues may arise, and we are dedicated to resolving any complaints promptly and effectively. This Complaints Handling Policy outlines our procedures for addressing and resolving customer complaints to ensure that they are handled with professionalism, fairness, and efficiency.

Complaints may be received directly from clients or from any third-party representatives. In the event of any complaint the matter must be immediately referred to the Compliance Officer. It should be noted that every expression of dissatisfaction amounts to a complaint. Whenever, any client expresses concern about the service, steps should be taken to resolve that matter and it should be treated as a complaint.

Any complaint received from any client or third-party representative or regulatory body such as Trading Standards, Citizens Advice Bureau, OFCOM, Ombudsman or ICO are immediately referred to the Compliance Officer.
