Dispute Resolution
Krste Kojoski / AKR Financial Solutions Pty Ltd is committed to the efficient and fair resolution of all client complaints as and when they are received. This level of fairness in treatment applies to all involved in any complaints or dispute process.
We have two types of dispute resolution processes for clients: Internal Dispute Resolution and External Dispute Resolution.
Internal Dispute Resolution
Our internal complaints handling system is easy to understand and in plain English. We will make every effort to ensure that you have every opportunity to express your concern and complaint.
If you have a concern or complaint with us you may:
- Email us at compliance@nlg.com.au
- Talk to our Complaints Manager by calling 1300 888 416
- Write a letter addressed to Level 7, 494 St Kilda Road, Melbourne VIC 3004
- Talk to your National Lending Group Credit Representative
Upon receipt of a concern or complaint we will discuss the issue with you and undertake any necessary investigation to resolve it. All client complaints will be responded to within 5 days of receipt. Unless unforeseeable circumstances arise, all client complaints will be resolved within 30 days of receipt.
If after this period the complaint remains unresolved, you will be informed in writing that your complaint cannot be resolved, and we will inform you of your right to continue through the External Dispute Resolution Scheme of which National Lending Group is a member.
