Your compliments also encourage us to keep striving to serve you better.

So if you have a complaint, compliment or other feedback, please talk to us.

Giving a compliment

If you compliment a specific staff member or team, we make sure your compliment is passed on so that they can be recognised for their service to you.

If you compliment a product we pass your feedback on to the appropriate department to help them focus on what works well for our customers.

Making a suggestion

Your feedback helps us to maintain a high standard of service and provide products and services that satisfy your needs. If you have a suggestion about how we can improve our products and services please let us know.

Steps in making a complaint

Step 1

Talk to us

Where possible, we encourage you to contact our Client Service Team on 13 15 19 (within Australia: 8am to 7pm, Sydney time, Mon to Fri) as soon as possible for assistance with your complaint.

We aim to resolve your complaint at your first point of contact with us. 

Step 2

Contact Customer Relations

Sometimes, a complaint is complex or requires a more detailed investigation than our Client Service Team is able to provide. If this is the case, your complaint might be referred to our Customer Relations team for specialist assistance.

If you have tried to resolve your complaint through the Client Service Team and are not satisfied with the outcome, you may also contact our Customer Relations team directly. You can contact Customer Relations by:
