  1. Within five business days of receiving your complaint, we will provide you with a letter acknowledging receipt.
  2. Your complaint will be investigated by an individual of sufficient competence who, where appropriate, has not been directly involved in the matter which is the subject of the complaint.
  3. We aim to provide you with a full response within four weeks of receiving your complaint. In the unlikely event that you are not happy with our initial response we will ask you to let us know so we can investigate further. Where, due to the complexities of a complaint, we are unable to provide you with a full response within four weeks, we will let you know, and we will aim to provide our final response within eight weeks. If TAM is still not in a position to make a final response at that time, we will advise you of the reasons for the delay along with an indication as to when we expect to provide a detailed response.
