Handling a complaint
You have the right to register a complaint if you are not satisfied with the services provided by the Bank. You can give your complaint in writing, verbally or over the telephone. A complaint register is maintained by the Bank.
The Bank will acknowledge in writing the receipt of your complaint within 3 working days from the date the complaint was received.
Within 10 working days of written acknowledgment, the Bank will provide you with a formal response in writing. If this is not possible (e.g. due to the nature of the complaint), a progress report will be sent to you with an indication of when you can expect a final response. Our focus would remain on the quality and completeness of the response, with speed of delivery being an important but not overriding factor.
If the complaint is not resolved within the given time or if you are not satisfied with the solution, you can approach the Banking Ombudsman with your complaint or other legal avenues available for grievance redressal.
Banking Ombudsman Scheme
If you do not receive a response from us within one month after we have received the complaint, or if you are not satisfied with the reply given by us, you may approach the Banking Ombudsman. The details of the Banking Ombudsman Scheme, as well as the contact details of the Ombudsman, are available on http://www.financialombudsman.gov.cy.
