IKIGAI KARATE LTD

Customers may express dissatisfaction to us about our products and services. We will need to establish whether or not the complaint relates to the information given. If unclear, this must not delay investigation and we will proceed with our own investigation. The complaints manager will review this matter and take the complaint to the company director to investigate and provide a written explanation and any supporting information. This may include photos, checklists or remedial satisfaction notes.

Investigation

The complaints manager will establish the nature and scope of the complaint.

• Deal with complaints promptly and fairly
• Give complainants clear replies and, where appropriate, fair redress
• We may take up to 8-weeks to provide a response

Eligible Complainants

It is the company’s policy to treat all complainants the same, however, eligible complainants.

Final response

This will set out clearly our decision and the reasons for it. If any compensation is offered a clear method of calculation will be shown.

Complaints Settled within 7 business days

Complaints that can be settled to the customer’s satisfaction within 7 business days can be recorded and communicated differently.

Where we consider a complaint to be resolved to the customer’s satisfaction under this section, the firm will promptly send a ‘Summary Resolution.

Communication’, being a written communication from them which:

1. refers to the fact that the customer has made a complaint and informs them that they now consider the complaint to have been resolved to the customers satisfaction.
2. The firm will tell the customer that if they subsequently decide that they are dissatisfied with the resolution of the complaint they may be able to refer the complaint back to the firm for further consideration.

In addition to sending you a Summary Resolution Communication, the firm may also use other methods to communicate the information where:

1. We consider that doing so may better meet the customer’s needs; or
2. They have already been using another method to communicate about the complaint. This may include recorded calls, emails or text messages.

Closing a complaint

We will consider a complaint closed when we have made our final response to the customer.
