Complaints Procedure

Have we done something wrong?

Kellett & Co is committed to the highest standards of service and compliance. Our office is bound by the PRS’s code of practice. We understand that sometimes things can go wrong and if they do we are committed to resolving problems with the minimum of inconvenience.

 

Our complaints procedure has been structured to ensure that any concerns are dealt with as quickly and efficiently as possible. Should you require assistance with this process, please email us at mail@kellettandco.co.uk.

Our process for handling complaints which is as follows:

1. Making a complaint

Our office is independently owned and the Director is the owner and operator. In the first instance your complaint should be directed in writing to the Director. Your complaint will be acknowledged within 3 working days. The office will conduct a full and thorough investigation and a full written response will be sent within 15 working days. 

2. If you remain dissatisfied

If you feel the matter remains unresolved you should write to the Director explaining why you are unhappy with the response. The Director will conduct a comprehensive review of your complaint and will give a final viewpoint in writing within 10 working days.

3. Independent redress

In the unlikely event that you are still dissatisfied then you may refer the matter to the Property Ombudsman at the following address:

Please be aware that you have up to 12 months from the date of the final viewpoint letter to refer your complaint to the PRS in writing.

 

4. What next?

You will receive written confirmation from the Property Redress Scheme (PRS) that your complaint form has been received. They will write to Kellett & Co, enclosing a copy of your complaints form, and request our file and a statement describing our version of events.

The complaint will be reviewed by the Property Redress Scheme together with the response from our office and a recommendation will be made to the Ombudsman who will then make a final decision which is binding upon the estate agent in question.

If you are still not satisfied after the last stage of the in-house complaint procedure (or more than 8 weeks has elapsed since the complaint was first made) you can request an independent review from The Property Redress Scheme.
