What is a complaint?

Making a complaint is a way to tell us you are unhappy or worried about something we have done, and you want it fixed or explained to you. You can make a complaint about anything; we want to help. The complaints team will always make sure your rights are respected and your views heard. If we can’t change something for you, we can tell you how to get the problem looked at again.
