Complaints Policy

Effective: 18th May 2018

Making a Complaint

If you have not been satisfied by our service please contact us in writing by email at support@jaevee.co.uk or by post addressed to Complaints Department, Estateducation Ventures Ltd, Studio 9 Netherconesford, 93-95 King Street, Norwich, NR1 1PW. You can also contact us by telephone on 01603 973214 during normal business hours.

Resolving complaints

We will keep you informed of the progress of the measures we are taking to resolve your complaint. We aim to resolve complaints promptly. Once an investigation has been completed, we will write to you with our conclusions.

If you are not happy with our response you may revert to us again, or if you are eligible, you may refer the matter to the Financial Ombudsman Service “FOS” within 6 months of our response. The contact details for the FOS may be found at the end of this policy.

You will be eligible to refer an unresolved complaint to the FOS if you are either:

  • “a consumer” - the meaning being “any natural person acting for purposes outside his trade, business or profession”; or
  • “a micro-enterprise” - a micro-enterprise is an enterprise that has fewer than 10 employees and has a turnover/annual balance sheet not exceeding 2m euros (i.e. approx. £1.6m) and have not been categorised as a professional client or an eligible counterparty; or
  • “a small business” – an enterprise which is not an mircro-enterprise and that has an annual turnover of less than £6.5m and which either has fewer than 50 employees or an annual balance sheet of below £5m and has not been categorised as a professional client or an eligible counterparty.

For these purposes an enterprise includes a partnership of self-employed persons.

Timeframe for resolving complaints

If we have not been able to resolve a complaint within eight weeks of receipt of the complaint, we will inform you why we are not able to provide a response.

If you are an eligible complainant you are then entitled to refer the matter to the FOS.

Financial Ombudsman Service
