We at Affinion are dedicated to building strong lasting relationships with our customers and aim to fulfill their needs and expectations at all times. We recognise as a business that sometimes things can go wrong and when this happens we encourage customers to tell us in order for us to resolve their complaint. We use information from complaints as a key tool in improving the quality of service we deliver to our customers and through undertaking root cause analysis work on complaints, aim to prevent their reoccurrence where possible. Our customers can be confident that we will deal with their complaints in a fair and transparent way, and that their insights enable us to adapt and develop products and services that align with their wants and needs.
Affinion is committed to transparency and to treating all consumers fairly in line with the Financial Services Authority (FSA) rules and we are happy to publish details of our complaints volumes. We understand that where a customer complains to our business that it is important that their complaint is fully investigated and handled fairly on an individual basis, with a view to prompt resolution where possible. As an example of this commitment the majority of complaints that we receive are thoroughly investigated on an individual basis and resolved by close of business the following day. We are always reviewing our complaints handling processes to ensure that we meet the needs of our customers. If you have any comments relating to our complaints handling processes, or wish to make a complaint please call us on 0800 3285170.
