Looking for an update?

We send out updates on cases as they progress through our dispute resolution process. We’re operating a very busy service at present, and because of this, if you are contacting us about a general update or to provide more information, it may mean that you’ll need to wait until your case is allocated to a case investigator or an adjudicator for a response.

 

Information line opening hours

Normal phone line opening hours

If you’d like to speak with a member of our Customer Service team, our normal phone line opening hours are between 9am to 4.30pm Monday to Friday, excluding bank holidays.

If you are a consumer and need information you can call 0345 241 3008* (option 1).

*Calls to 03 numbers cost the same as calls to 01 and 02 prefixed numbers and are included as part of any inclusive minutes or discount package. These rules apply to calls from any type of line including mobile, fixed line or payphone.

More information on how we can help

If our phone lines are unavailable, in the meantime, if you are contacting us about a new dispute, you can log this with us online if the business that you have a dispute with is accredited to one or more of our Codes of Practice. You can find more information on how to do this using our online form here.

If you currently have a case with us, you can reply to the latest email we have sent to you, ensuring your case reference number is included and a member of the team will respond as soon as they can.

You can also find useful information on Knowledge Base.

You can still send letters to our Head Office by post, however, there may be some delays with processing the documents and online communications would be preferable if possible.
If you already have a case with us, please reply to the latest email from us and attach any documentation or photos.

If you have not yet logged a case with us, you can find information on how to submit your dispute online at the bottom of this webpage.
