COMPLAINT HANDLING POLICY
POLICY STATEMENT
It is the policy of Moto Credit Express to respond to all customer issues, disputes and complaints quickly, decisively and accurately. Ironhorse will make every effort to reach a mutually agreeable resolution to each complaint.
RATIONALE
The policy is designed to provide guidance on the manner in which Ironhorse handles complaints made against the company, its business partners and employees.
WHAT IS A COMPLAINT?
A complaint, as defined by this policy, is defined as follows:
An expression of dissatisfaction made to the company, related to our products and services, or the complaint-handling process itself, where a response or resolution is explicitly or implicitly expected.
Any complainant who is dissatisfied with a product or service provided by Ironhorse or one of its business partners, for any reason, may contact the company to complain. We have determined that the best, fastest method of complaint transmittal is by email, but verbal and written complaints will be processed and given the same level of consideration as email.
GUIDING PRINCIPLES OF EFFECTIVE COMPLAINTS HANDLING
Visibility – Our Complaints Handling Policy is readily available on our website at www.motocreditexpress.com.
Accessibility – Our Complaints Handling Policy is readily accessible to all business partners, employees and customers. The policy is easy to understand and includes details on making and resolving complaints.
Responsiveness – When received via email, receipt of each complaint is acknowledged to the complainant immediately. Complaints will be treated courteously and kept informed of the progress of their complaint throughout the complaint-handling process.
Objectivity – Each complaint is addressed in an equitable, objective and unbiased manner through the complaints-handling process.
Charges – There will be no charge to the complainant for making a complaint.
Confidentiality – Personally identifiable information (“PII”) and non-public information (“NPI”) concerning the complainant is actively protected from disclosure unless the complainant expressly consents to its disclosure.
Customer-focused approach – All business partners and employees are committed to efficient and fair resolution of complaints. We actively solicit feedback from our customers on a regular basis and acknowledge a customer’s right to complain.
Accountability – All business partners and employees accept responsibility for effective complaints handling. The Compliance Officer will ensure that, where appropriate, issues raised in the complaints handling process are reflected in partner and employee performance evaluation.
Continual Improvement – Our complaints handling process will be reviewed periodically, and at least annually, to aim to enhance its efficient delivery of effective outcomes.
