Joint Equity Ltd - Complaints Procedure
About our Complaints Procedure:
At Joint Equity we do our best to make sure that you don’t have any complaints about our activities or our processes.
However, if you have a complaint to make, we have a procedure that we will follow to try and get your complaint resolved as effectively as possible.

Contact information for complaints:
We have a dedicated email address for complaints, which is: complaints@jointequity.co.uk. Please use this address when making a complaint with us.
Of course, any complaints received to all other Joint Equity email addresses will be treated with the same care and attention.
Complaints Procedure and the FSA:
Since 31st August 2010 the FSA requires all registered companies that received more than 500 complaints in the six month period to report their performance in handling the complaints.
We have a special page for the latest information on the FSA Complaints Procedure, here

Stage 1

Within 1 working day of complaint
All complaints should initially be directed to your personal Joint Equity Manager. All emails we send to you are from individual team members and all staff are trained in our customer care process.
If you do not know who your personal manger is then use the general team email address (e.g. owners@jointequity.co.uk for Owner-Partners and investors@jointequity.co.uk for Investor-Partners) and we will forward it to the right person for you.
Your personal manager will try and resolve the problem immediately and will offer an explanation and a solution
Stage 2

If the issue cannot be resolved within 1 working day or to your satisfaction, your personal manager will continue to try and resolve the problem.
If within 5 working days we have not resolved the problem, we will:
1. Explain why not
2. Explain what we are doing
3. Provide an estimate of the time it will take to resolve the problem
4. Send a copy of this reply to the Joint Equity Complaints Officer, who is responsible to the Managing Director and the board for our complaints process and the resolution of your complaint.
If  you are unhappy with our response, you may escalate the complaint directly to the Complaints Officer through the dedicated complaints email: complaints@jointequity.co.uk
