If things go wrong – our complaints procedure.

 At Pendefords, we are committed to providing a professional service to all our clients and customers. In the unlikely event that things go wrong, we need you to tell us about them as soon as possible. This will help us to resolve issues at the time that they arise, and improve our service going forward.

If you have a complaint, please put it in writing to us, by letter or email. We will acknowledge your complaint and respond in line with the timescales and stages set out below. No charge will be made for addressing or resolving your complaint.
