At Vancity Community Investment Bank, we take client service very seriously and have procedures in place to handle any written or verbal complaint received from clients in a fair and prompt manner. We appreciate you taking the time to provide us with your feedback as it will ultimately help us improve our products and services.
We will provide you with acknowledgement that we received your complaint without delay. We endeavour to resolve your complaint as soon as practical and resolutions should take no longer than 56 days from the date the complaint was received. If a complaint cannot be resolved within 56 days, a communication will be sent to notify you of the reason for the delay along with an estimate of the time required to complete the response.
To file a complaint or to escalate a complaint that is not resolved to your satisfaction, please follow the steps outlined below:
Internal Review Steps
Step 1: Talk to the Customer Service Representative or Relationship Manager relevant to your complaint:
Step 2: Escalate your Complaint
If you feel we did not resolve your concern to your satisfaction, please ask the Customer Service Representative or Relationship Manager that your concern is escalated to a supervisor or Manager.
Step 3: Contact our designated Senior Complaint Officer
If your complaint is still not resolved to your satisfaction after completing Step 1 and 2, please contact our designated Senior Complaint Officer in writing via email at: srcomplaintsofficer@vcib.ca. The Senior Complaints officer will only review your complaint after you have received a response from the supervisor or Manager involved in the Step 2.
The Senior Complaints Officer will provide VCIB’s final decision and explain how the outcome was made.
