Complaints

We are committed to delivering the highest standards of customer care and we are always interested in your feedback.

If you would like to make a complaint about our service you can contact our complaints team using the following details:

Telephone: 020 7977 5700

Email: complaints@arc-int.co.uk

Address: The Complaints Officer, Arc International, St Clare House, 30-33 Minories, EC3N 1PE

Whilst we will make every effort to maintain the highest standards, we recognise that there may be occasions when we fail to satisfy the particular requirements of our customers. We therefore have in place procedures to investigate and remedy any area of concern.

In such circumstances, we promise:

To acknowledge any formal complaints in five working days or less
To have complaints and expressions of dissatisfaction reviewed fairly and independently by a person of appropriate seniority and authority
To identify the person managing your complaint in our original letter of response
To respond fully to your concern or complaint within four weeks or less. If for any reason this is not possible, we will write to you to explain why we have been unable to conclude the matter quickly. We will also let you know when we will contact you again.
If we have been unable to resolve your complaint in eight weeks, we will write to you explaining the reason as to why this has not been possible. We will also advise you of your right to refer your complaint to Lloyd’s and/or the Financial Ombudsman Service.

Online Dispute Resolution Platform

The European Commission has established an Online Dispute Resolution Platform (ODR Platform) that is specifically designed to help EU consumers who have bought goods or services online from a trader based elsewhere in the EU and subsequently has a problem with that online purchase. The ODR platform will refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service which will pass it on to Arc International.
