Customer Concern Policy

Our Aim

Volkswagen Financial Services (UK) Limited is dedicated to developing lasting relationships with our customers and aim to fulfil their needs and expectations.

We are committed to always providing courteous and professional customer care, ensuring customers are treated fairly.

However, sometimes things can go wrong and when this happens, we encourage our customers to tell us about it so we can put things right. Therefore, if we haven't met your expectations, please tell us so we can look into this.

We take all concerns seriously, and any information shared with us is treated with the utmost care. Customer feedback helps us to deliver good outcomes and provides us with valuable insights which are used to improve quality of service.

 

Making us aware of your concerns

You can raise concerns to our Customer Resolutions Department in several ways:

 

Motor Finance Commission Complaints

For specific information regarding motor commissions complaints, please see our Motor Finance Commission Complaints page. You can also find more information about these types of complaints on the Financial Conduct Authority website.

If you choose to contact us, please assist us by providing full details of your concern, together with any supporting documentation and contact details (including daytime telephone number). This information will help us to deal with your query promptly.

 

What you can expect

Following receipt of your complaint, we will acknowledge you within five working days and we will keep you informed throughout our investigation. Our aim is to resolve all complaints in a timely manner and we will issue you a final response detailing the outcome. In the event we are not able to resolve within eight weeks, a holding letter will be issued. 

 

Your rights

In addition to raising your concern(s) with us, you also have the right to refer your complaint to independent third parties, as below:

 

Financial Ombudsman Service ('FOS') - if, after receiving an outcome to your complaint, you are dissatisfied, or if we have been unable to resolve your complaint within 8 weeks, you can contact the Financial Ombudsman Service. This service is completely independent and aims to help individuals settle disputes with financial firms. 

We will also provide FOS details in our final response letter. Alternatively, you can visit the FOS website, here.

Information Commissioner (‘ICO’) - if you have previously submitted a data protection complaint and are not satisfied with the response you received from VWFS, you have the right to contact the ICO, the data protection regulator in the UK. Their contact details are as follows:
