Making a complaint
At Microfinance Ireland, our aim is to provide you with the best possible service in the most efficient manner. However, we do understand that sometimes things can go wrong or you may be unhappy with a decision we have made.
What We Mean by a Customer Complaint
A customer complaint refers to an expression of grievance or dissatisfaction either orally or in writing, in connection with
- – the provision or/offer of the provision of a loan product by Microfinance Ireland;
- – or the failure or refusal of Microfinance Ireland to provide a loan product
Complaints may be raised by a customer, in writing, by phone, in a face to face meeting or by third party acting for the customer (intermediary, legal representative).
IMPORTANT: A customer’s decision to appeal a credit decision does not automatically constitute a customer complaint – any complaint in relation to a credit application must be made separately and will be managed in line with Microfinance Ireland’s Customer Complaints Procedures. Credit Appeals are managed through Microfinance Ireland’s Appeals process – which is listed under our FAQs section.
