The FCA outlines complaints handling rules in the Dispute Resolution Sourcebook (DISP). This guidance applies to the mortgage market, intending to treat both lenders and mortgage clients fairly.
A complaint refers to an expression of dissatisfaction, delivered orally or in writing, resulting from financial loss, material distress or inconvenience.
Our Complaints Handling for the Mortgage Market explains the procedures involved in dealing with mortgage client complaints and the best practice for complaints handling.
For those in leadership, we have a companion course entitled Complaints Handling for Managers.
