Send us a Compliment

Suggestions for Improvement
We want to get it right... you can help us with your feedback. The ability to have 'your say' is an important part of the Credit Union difference. We welcome your comments and suggestions.
We appreciate you taking the time to assist us with our focus on continual improvement and quality member service.
Make a Complaint
Our aim is to provide a quality service and to meet your needs. Where you feel there is room for improvement or you have a concern or an issue that needs to be addressed - please let us know. We welcome the opportunity to resolve your concerns.
1. Making a Complaint
Hunter United has developed an internal process so that any concerns you may have about your Credit Union are addressed promptly and also come to the attention of management.
In most instances your concerns or complaints can be settled to your satisfaction by simply making us aware of them. Details of how to contact us are below. If the staff member is unable to handle the matter they will refer your problem to the appropriate person. The majority of cases are resolved to member's satisfaction at this stage.
2. How To Use Our Dispute Resolution Procedure
If after following all avenues in step 1, your complaint has not been satisfactorily resolved you may wish to take the matter further. If so, you will need to complete a Member Complaint form; we will provide this when you ask.
3. Dispute Notification
We will enter the dispute in our internal register and acknowledge receipt of your complaint to you within two (2) working days.
4. Dispute Investigation
Your complaint will then be fully investigated and a decision made on the matter.
5. How You Will be Informed of the Outcome
In the majority of cases you will be advised of the outcome in writing within ten (10) working days. Should there be exceptional circumstances causing a delay we will advise you.
6. Financial Ombudsman Service
If however, in spite of our best efforts, you are still not satisfied, you have access to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS). The FOS is a free and independent dispute resolution service. The FOS is able to investigate disputes and make decisions that are binding on the Credit Union. The FOS can be contacted at 1300 780808.
